The "second guy" is none other than the supremely talented Roy Orbison! This is THE Supergroups of Supergroups. I don't think this much talent together in one group can ever be surpassed, ever.
I'm with you on this, but don't forget the Highwaymen: Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson. THAT is a lineup. Before Led Zeppelin released their first album, they were called a supergroup. They had all earned reputations as sessions musicians, and had worked together in various combinations. Then there's Monsters of Folk. Not the same star power, but they made on Hell of a good album.
There is more talent in this song than is easily comprehendible. They've sold more albums put together than anyone. The 'second guy' is Roy Orbison. He's amazing.
😆 Not sure if they have been reading comments thorouly lately, because they have reacted to this group before a few months ago. We all told them on the comments on that video "End of the Line" who the members were. Or they probably forgot. IDK.
@@John_Locke_108 👋 True, maybe they've too busy to go over comments carefully or forget? IDK. Also, they the did same thing on their most recent No Doubt "Sunday Morning " reaction, asking what genre was the group (they are new wave, ska-punk, alternative rock). It's like a repeat question. As we all told them in the comments on several other No Doubt videos that they've reacted to already over many months. And other bands like them (ska-punk) they've reacted to like Real Big Fish, Sublime, Mighty Bosstones, Rancid, Madness, etc. We all left comments on those videos, too on those bands musical style. They should have a pretty good idea on ska, ska-punk by now. Ska, reggae, dancehall, punk rock fusion. 🎷 🎸 🕺
@@brettkenschaft4239 The best rock session drummer in history, Jim Keltner. He played for John Lennon, George Harrison and Bob Dylan among hundreds of others greats. He was asked to be an official member of TW, but declined. Still, as the other members he also got his Wilbury-name; Buster Sidebury.
Imagine being part of the biggest band in history & the guy standing next to you one of the best vocalists ever & being described as the other two guys.😄
You guys probably already found out but this supergroup consists of Bob Dylan, George Harrison (The Beatles), Jeff Lynne (ELO), Roy Orbison and Tom Petty
Plus legendary drummer, Jim Keltner. Pre-Wilburys he’d worked with Dylan, Harrison & Orbison. Also with; Barbra Streisand, BB King, Pink Floyd, John Lennon, Carley Simon, Simon & Garfunkel, Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young & Many more. His credits are staggering.
Although he specifically asked to NOT be credited as "part of the band" as he didn't feel that he really deserved to be included as part of such rare talent
Sadly only Jeff and Bob left, but man what an assemblage of talent! not bad for a song based off seeing the line "handle with care" on a cardboard box.
1st guy - George Harrison of the Beatles 2nd guy - Roy Orbison Next - Tom Petty and Bob Dylan 5th singer - Jeff Lynn of E.L.O. Drummer - Jim Keltner (widely known as the best session drummer around).
Per Songfacts This was the first single from The Traveling Wilburys, a supergroup created by George Harrison and Jeff Lynne. Initially an informal grouping with Roy Orbison and Tom Petty, they got together at Bob Dylan's Santa Monica, California, studio to quickly record an additional track as a B-side for the single release of Harrison's song "This Is Love." "Handle With Care" was the song they came up with, which Harrison and his record company immediately realized was too good to be released as merely a B-side. The five superstars decided to form a band and make an entire album, recording nine more songs at Dave Stewart's (of Eurythmics) house in Los Angeles in a 10-day window when they were all available. "Handle With Care" is a phrase that is sometimes stamped onto boxes to let delivery personnel know that the contents are fragile. In this song, the singer must be handled with care because he's been hurt in the past. Bob Dylan's studio, where they recorded the song, was in his garage, and George Harrison noticed a box that was marked "Handle With Care," thus inspiring the lyric.
Why no love for Buster Sidebury? Session drummer Jim Keltner (who has played on countless albums for lots of artists) was invited to be an official Wilbury, but he declined and said he was a Sidebury.
George Harrison- Beatles Roy Orbison- Legend (Pretty Woman-Blue Bayou-Crying) Tom Petty- Heartbreaker Bob Dylan- Poet laureate of the 60's Jeff Lynne- Electric Light Orchestra Jim Keltner- Drums
I love this song so much. It reminds me of my childhood. Riding bikes with my friends. Ice cream from the cart. Swimming in a quarry, with my cousins. Not a care in the world 😁
The GREATEST " Super Group " of all time - there's 5 of them Lex btw . The late George Harrison ( Beatles ) , the late Roy Orbison ( solo artist ) the late Tom Petty ( Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers ) , Bob Dylan ( solo artist ) and Jeff Lynne ( ELO ) . All superstars in their own right and a superb combination the like of which we will never see again !
Well said! They were a super group of the best! They wrote all their songs in a short amount of time. That is just how good they were at what they do and together they were awesome.
@@brettkenschaft4239 in case you didn't know they all had names thay created, Roy was Lefty Wilburry, George was Nelson, Tom was Charlie T Jr, Bob was Lucky, and Jeff was Otis, Jim Kelter was gifted the name Buster, since he couldn't really be a Wilburry he became a Sidebury
First guy singing is George Harrison of the Beatles (RIP), second guy (dark hair and glasses) is Roy Orbison (also RIP), when of the greatest early rock voices, third and fouth guys are Dylan and Petty, and fifth guy (longish, frizzy hair, beard and glasses) is Jeff Lynne from ELO. All of them are rock icons. This assemblage of artists is truly a super-group of singers, songwriters, and performers. None of them can be duplicated, but often imitated and always respected.
I cannot believe you don't instantly recognise one of the best vocalists to ever come out of the USA! 'The second guy' is the late great Roy Orbison! And 'the other guy' is Grorge Harrison of The Beatles fame. Where have you been and what have you listened to all your lives? These are all true legends.
I think they can be excused for not instantly recognising someone who died before they were born. Amazing as Orbison was, his music hasn't endured in the popular culture as much as some others from that era. As to what they've been listening to - have you seen the channel before? It's basically turning into a Greatest Hits of the last 50+ years, as far as musical education goes they've got WAY more knowledge than I ever had at that age.
@@theritchie2173 Nonsense. I was born in the early 70's and can easily identify rock artists all the way back to the 1950's How does anyone call themselves a music fan and then not know who the f George Harrison is? Ridiculous.
@@neilmartin99 Well aren't you special. If you really want to make a fair comparison, you should be deeply familiar with lots of artists back to the 1930s. How well up are you on Shep Fields, or Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians? The Boswell Sisters? You've been listening to this stuff for nearly 50 years, they've been doing it for a couple. Music is a broad church, maybe other people have very different experiences to your own. We should be welcoming new listeners, not trying to put them down.
@@theritchie2173 When I was their age, I was very familiar with the top musicians from several eras. Then again, I didn't have a RU-vid channel with several thousand followers. Really...after doing this for this long and they still don't know the f George Harrison is? Did you hear those two butcher the reaction to Everybody Hurts by REM recently? They spent the entire review on Stipe's vocal inflections and completely missed the point of the song. How the hell does that even happen? The song meaning is so obvious. And don't compare the significance of music in the 30's and 40's to the music of the 60's and 70's in terms of historical relevance and importance. That's why you see young kids today wearing Beatles or Pink Floyd t-shirts. It was that influential. When I was growing up, kids certainly didn't wear Billie Holiday t-shirts.
@@neilmartin99 I don't watch all of their videos - only the ones where the song interests me - but yeah I've seen one or both of them (let's be honest, usually Brad) get it wrong now & again. Having said that, there are songs I've been listening to for 40+ years where I still don't even know the lyrics, but every guitar lick & drumbeat is stamped in my brain. I guess I just don't have the ears for it. That being said, I just finished watching 6 hours of Taylor Hawkins tribute concert and damn that was something special.
The beauty of the super group Traveling Wilbur’s is that these guys were friends who liked playing. They felt like being in a band so. No ego nonsense just talented friends who love to play
The 1st singer is George Harrison, 2nd was Roy Orbison, 3rd was Bob Dylan, 4th was Tom Petty, 5th was Jeff Lynn. Those guy made a incredible band! I love this song!
George Harrison and Jeff Lynne were hanging out, and started talking about who they would choose for a band,if they could have anyone they wanted. What started as just a topic of conversation... ended up being The Traveling Wilburys!
WOW! You guys nailed this one! One of the best reactions ever!... but as an old guy the fact that you don't recognize all the members... I'm feeling mighty old. LOL! One of the guys was in The Beatles... man, I'm old.
Now that we have lost many of these guys, I am so grateful that they got together for this collaboration. All famous in their own right. But together as friends was a true pleasure to watch and listen to these tunes
Pretty sure you know Roy Orbison, though you didn't recognize him. He started in the early 60s with hits like "Oh, Pretty Woman," "Crying," "Only the Lonely," "Blue Bayou," and he scored a hit in 1989, a month after he died, with "You Got It."
The 1st guy played with a group from England called the beatles and the 2nd guy as mentioned was Mr. Orbison. The other guys are pretty good too. So glad you're discovering some of the most iconic artists in modern music.
I love the first guy (George Harrison) and the second guy (Roy Orbison) references...lol. So cute. Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne (ELO) complete the ensemble of this "supergroup".
Plus legendary drummer, Jim Keltner. Pre-Wilburys he’d worked with Dylan, Harrison & Orbison. Also with; Barbra Streisand, BB King, Pink Floyd, John Lennon, Carley Simon, Simon & Garfunkel, Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young & Many more. His credits are staggering.
This was considered a supergroup formed by George Harrison from The Beatles, Tom Petty from Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, Jeff Lynne From ELO ( Electric Light Orchestra), Bob Dylan and Roy Orbison ( "the second guy", a true legend who outlived many tragic events in his life). Tom, Roy and George passed away.
The way George told it, he and Jeff were going to lunch in LA, Jeff calls Roy and asks him to join them, George gets a call from a record co in Europe and says "They need a song for the B Side of This Is Love", now they need a studio, George calls Bob "hey can we record a song in your garage?", sure come on over, Roy asks to tag along, George says "I have to pickup my guitar at Toms house", Tom wants to tag, get to Bobs and History
It’s astounding to me that icons like Roy Orbison and George Harrison aren’t immediately identifiable to some… But then then I’m old. Kind of funny to hear them identified as thing one and thing two though. :) BTW, the other guy people often miss is Jeff Lynne of ELO. The superest of all super-groups!!!
Interestingly enough the most prolific and arguably the most talented man in that group is Jeff Lynne. He's the guy less heard of in the mainstream. He's wearing sunglasses with the beard. He wrote songs for nearly all these blokes; especially Tom Petty. He had his own great band called Electric Light Orchestra (ELO). Has been a producer for so many other famous artists!
Lex, for homework tonight you must write George Harrison’s name 100 times! 😂 You’ve reacted enough times to him and the Beatles. Keep exploring, I love watching both your reactions 💕
Y'all are so cute! "The first guy" is the legendary George Harrison, a former Beatle. "The second guy" is the legendary Roy Orbison. I love that you're starting to recognize some of the artists and voices you encounter. Keep going on your educational journey; there is much yet to learn! My take on this song is that it's about an older man (or woman, for that matter) who's had plenty of bad experiences in love relationships, but still has love to give, and it's urging this person they've just met to handle them carefully.
The 'first guy' was none other than George Harrison of that little band called...The Beatles!!! The 'second guy' was none other than the great Roy Orbison!!! Man, I love you two but you really do have some brushing up to do on rock music Royalty!!! Also the great Bob Dylan, as you know and Tom Petty who was the junior member and loved and was honored to be in a band with so many legends especially one of The Beatles!!! Then another one you might have missed...the great Jeff Lynne who was, and still is, the leader of E.L.O.!!! And last but not least the drummer, the legendary Jim Keltner who in his past has played with John Lennon, Ringo Starr and of course George Harrison throughout his career!!! Now you know! Step back in awe and admiration for these absolutely incredible musicians!!! Love you two!!!
Wrong video...Roy Orbison is sitting in the chair at the end of this video. You're thinking of the empty rocking chair in the video for End of the Line.
Plus legendary drummer, Jim Keltner. Pre-Wilburys he’d worked with Dylan, Harrison & Orbison. Also with; Barbra Streisand, BB King, Pink Floyd, John Lennon, Carley Simon, Simon & Garfunkel, Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young & Many more. His credits are staggering.
The interesting thing about this supergroup is that the top dog in the group was only the third dog in the group he is most known for. Everyone else was known for being a top dog elsewhere, and if you asked those guys who was the brightest star in the Wilburys they'd all agree that George was it.
Talk about packed full of talent ! George Harrison (ex-Beatle), Jeff Lynne (lead man from ELO), Roy Orbison (legendary singer), Bob Dylan (what can one say) and Tom Petty...... WOW !
I just watched this video. The guy singing lead is George Harrison( The Beatles), the guy with the black glasses is Roy Orbison( he originally released the song Pretty Woman), Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and the guy with the sunglasses and beard is Jeff Lynn, the founder of ELO. This song was their first release as The Traveling Wilburys. Great song.
I know what you mean about 'the second guy'... but decades later hearing this, being through all my own heartbreaks and breakups, wow, Roy Orbison's vocal vulnerability is incredible; what a stand-out. Took me decades to catch up to him... alas, I caught up.
They have a song called Nobody's Child. Omgoodness, my mom used to love that song when I was younger and she always teared up, every damn time. Such a beautiful song xo
I find it legit so cute how much y'all love Tom Petty and are instantly always cued in on him -- and George Harrison, a former member of arguably the most famous rock band in history (The Beatles), is "the other guy" 😂😂
Yes and 3 of those absolute legends have already passed on. Roy Orbison, you know Pretty Woman?, passed between this their first and the second song they put out, End of the Line. There is actually a tribute to Roy with the famous guitar in a rocking chair during the taping. Then George Harrison, the Beatles legend followed by Tom Petty, the one in the hat. They will never be again but live on in all their many hits and appearances on the world stage. Don’t forget Jeff Lynn also, the one with all the hair. My God and I recall the word is George Harrison the only one who could talk to Bob Dillon like this told Bob to “check his ego at the door”.
First singer is George Harrison from the Beatles. Second singer with the haunting very different voice and black hair with dark sunglasses was Roy Orbison. Then came Tom Petty and Bob Dylan. And finally the bearded fellow with the big head of curly hair is Jeff Lynn lead singer of ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) and producer for many others albums.
Jeff Lynn, the guy with big hair, brard and glasses, was the producer on Harrison's, Petty's and Roy Orbison's comeback albums. I think he was instrumental in getting Roy to record again. Roy died and was honored in the videos that he didn't get to participate in. One of the greatest of any super group.
The first guy was George Harrison a ex Beatle. The second guy was Roy Orbison , who by the way was a major star when the Beatles began. They opened for Orbison on his British tour before they became too big. This is mostly a friends reunion. Jeff Lyne (E.L.O.) plays and produces
The "first guy" was Mr. George Harrison (RIP), a former Beatle fer crissakes, and the "second guy" was Mr. Roy Orbison (RIP), fer crissakes, he wrote "Pretty Woman" among many others, then Mr. Bob Dylan and Mr, Tom Petty (RIP) and lastly Mr.Jeff Lynn, from The Electric Light Orchestra (ELO). The Travelling Wilburys were an All-Star band, with a brief but productive run.
That second guy is Roy Orbinson, one of the best voices ever. He was around since the 50s and left us this century but not before giving us some great music.
The name "Handle With Care" came from George Harrison. As the boys were starting to write lyrics for the song, Bob Dylan asked George for a title to the song. George saw the words "Handle With Care" written on a box in Bob Dylan's garage. The rest is history.
The song starts off with George Harrison, former Beatles, then the 2nd guy with the glasses is Roy Orbison , mainly solo , famous for song such as Pretty Woman and I am sure you have heard of that one. 3rd then 4th guy comes in are Dylan then Petty. The other guy with the dark glasses is Jeff Lynne, of ELO. Power Group here.
Guys, the other members of this super group were non other than George Harrison of the Beatles, Roy Orbison, and Jeff Lynne of Electric Light Orchestra. Unbelievable collaboration right there.
The second guy is the world famous Roy Orbison. The guy that Elvis pressley said was the world's best singer. Roy and Elvis were the only 2 people in history to have 2 albums in the top 10 at the same time after they died. The title Handle me with Care they got from the wooden crate that Handle with Care was printed on.
First guy: George Harrisson from The Beatles, Second guy Roy Orbison, and forgotten guy Jeff Lynn of Electric Light Orchestra and Dylan and Petty. It’s called a Supergroup!
The First guy was a member of a little known group called The Beatles he's George Harrison. The second guy is Roy Orbison. He was big in the 50's and 60's. He's biggest hit was "Pretty Woman" great song.
You guys need to do some Roy Orbison reactions if you haven't already. Pretty Woman, Crying, In Dreams, Only the Lonely, Blue Bayou, and the one he recorded right before he died, You Got It. The man has a voice like no other. Bruce Springsteen did his induction speech for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and mentioned driving in the back of a truck for hours to go see him in concert and that he wanted to sing like Roy but that nobody sings like Roy. Roy came out of Sun Studios along with Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash. He was one of the few American acts to weather the British Invasion, and even before that occurred, he toured with the Beatles, in the UK, back in 1963, and apparently some of the Beatles wondered how they were going to follow Roy. Lennon's early work was inspired by Roy and then decades later Harrison would join him in a super group called The Travelling Wilberys.
Hey you guys, the first singer is George Harrison of the BEATLES, the second singer is ROY ORBISON, they made a second album, (after ROY died,) It has many great tunes as well. Check it out. You won't regret it. Anyway, back to the first album---play Tweeter and the Monkey Man---2nd last song on the album---Bob Dylan does lead vocals on this---The chorus is so catchy----and this band of great people really ROCK this number. One of the best on the album. I bet you two will really love it. Shout out to---the DRUMMER on these albums---you see him in the video his name is JIM KELTNER. Played with Harrison --post Beatles---Jeff Lynne---lead man of ELO and Bob Dylan are the only 2 still alive. But we have these albums. Love you guys...keep listening---PEACE.
The second guy is Roy Orbison, the first singer is George Harrison. Jeff Lynne of ELO is also in the group. And you know Dylan & Petty. Probably the superduper of supergroups.
Even the most badass, toughest person is vulnerable and sensitive at times. "Handle With Care" is about being aware of those sensibilities. Check out Roy Orbison"s other work, including "Cryin'", "Pretty Woman", "Only The Lonely", "You Got It", and "I Drove All Night". He was a legend, and he passed away in late 1988, just as the Travelling Wilburys' album was about to be released.
Two of the artists you failed to recognize were George Harrison, former BEATLE, and the incomparable Roy Orbison. Jeff Lynne from ELO was also a part of this Supergroup. Have to give kudos to Lex for naming at least two of these artists. Brad with a goose egg for not recognizing any of them.🤣
The first guy was George Harrison of the Beatles, the 2nd guy was Roy Orbison, you knew Bob Dylan and Tom Petty, but there’s also Jeff Lynne of Electric Light Orchestra
Maybe one of the greatest Supergroups ever!! "Orbison had a one-of-a-kind voice with a three-octave range and what one writer called a 'glass-shattering falsetto."
Holy Guacamole, that second guy is Roy Orbison, you'll have to look him up, among his gems are "Pretty Woman" "Only The Lonely" "In Dreams" "Crying" there's a lot, he died after this video came out and was not in future videos, Roy Orbison had been recording since the late 50's, was huge in the 60's, fell off the radar in the 70's and in the mid 80's made a big comeback, check out "You Got It" and "Mystery Girl" from this period, as a plus, check out Roy Orbison Black and White Night, a special taped with several big stars, Bruce Springsteen and Jackson Brown, T Bone Burnett, Bonnie Rait, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello and watch that version of Pretty Woman....Way back then, somebody asked Elvis Presley how it felt to be the best singer in the world, he answered, I don't know, ask Roy Orbison.
There is a documentary on the making of.. Tom was to solo after Roy and was like, oh great - will anyone sound good going after Roy! They all were like Roy was a monster to follow, so the duet of Tom and Bob came in! LOL.
the way it all came together was crazy....jeff lynn and george harrison were out to dinner....roy orbison was at the same LA restaurant, or something.....george had just come out with an album that jeff lynn hd produced (hes a brilliant producer), and had one song he wanted to do as a single, or something, or a poce of a somg (the song in this video)....jeff and george wanted to work on it, roy was now eating with them....they needed a studio, george knew bob dylan had one at his house, he calls bob, bob rarely, if ever, answers the phone, this time he miraculously did, next thing they knew bob's in the group......george needed one of his guitars, a very specific one he had let tom petty borrow, he goes over to tom's to get it....next thing u know, tom's in the band....and i forget the plot twist that brought the drummer into the band.....anyway, between harrison, dylan, petty, and lynn, they finish off the somg, taking the title from a moving box, cuz whoever's house they were at had just moved , the box said "handle with care".....anyway, they had such fun writjg that song as a team/group, they deceided to make an album, as heorge put it he said "why dont we just write 10, or 11 mkre and do a whole album".....and just like that, by total chance, on of tne coolest groups in all of rock history was formed
This is probably a good time to suggest that you do reactions to some Roy Orbison songs. "Pretty Woman", "Crying", "Only The Lonely", "In Dreams", "Blue Bayou"... The list goes on. So many classics! And the greatest voice! All the other legends in the Traveling Wilburys looked up to him.
The song was mostly written by George Harrison. Many of the lyrics are in reference to his life, especially when in The Beatles 'overexposed and commercialised'
This song created the Traveling Wilburys. Originally George intended this recording as a bonus track on a European single he worked on... The record company thought too good to be a b-side, So, George agreed and shelved it, then asked the others and arranged to get together with them again months later to record the first Wilbury's album. The song was written on the spot and the title 'Handle With Care' came from a box in the corner
The story of this band forming is so cool... Won't even try to get it all straight...It started with George going to Bob's house to record a song but he had to pick up a guitar, the guy he was with said I wanna go...When he was picking up his guitar that guy said I wanna go. when they got to Bobs, they all wanted to record with George...Song came out great & they thought they should make an album but Bob had his first tour in many years starting in 2 weeks So they recorded the album, wrote & recorded one complete song per day for 9 day & and we got the album...Fate
Each a different megastar generations top musicians 50’s-90’s it seems to me . We all have our sad stories and rough times so be kind to each other is what I take from this song.
Roy Orbison had a resurgence in the 80's with ELO's Jeff Lynne (also in the band) with Roy's awesome hit "you got it" and then with this song that when he passed suddenly in the middle of it all, many of us wore black to high school in memory. Rip to all the legends gone here and long life to those that remain.
