The Traveling Wilbury's are just about all gone...
Tom Petty
George Harrison
Roy Orbison
Bob Dylan
Jeff Lynne

They sure put out some great tunes. They never got the credit they were due. I think too many people saw them as a novelty.
was on my way home from work this afternoon when I heard this news 
Possibly the best at what he did, of all the greatests.
Wow.... I am just thinking and really I have always thought of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers as my fav all time band...
Their first album they put out, was also the first I ever bought on my own, I think.
I am sitting here now playing Petty song after Petty song ... one can not choose ones favourite !
RIP Tom
