M ark Knopfler breaks my heart. It breaks my heart that he wasn't one of the Traveling Wilburys (he would have been a nice foil for George Harrison's cheesy pap tendencies, and he knew Dylan better than any of those guys). It breaks my heart that he's too often relegat...

Yes, but the George Harrison song "Wah Wah" didn't come out until Nixon. And LBJ isn't worse than Jimmy "History's Greatest Monster" Carter.

DETROIT (Billboard) - In 1976, Mick Jones found himself out of a job. The Surrey native had a reputation as a guitar gunslinger dating back to his own band, Nero & the Gladiators; session credits for George Harrison, Peter Frampton and Johnny Halliday; and tenures with the Leslie West Band and Spooky Tooth. But after an angry departure from the Leslie West Band, Jones was at a crossroads and looking...

Know what I’m talking about? The Traveling Wilburys were – in my opinion, and that of many critics and fans – the best rock supergroup to ever have existed. Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, and Rob Orbison recorded under that name from 1988-1990. Their best-known songs – and justifiably so – were “Handle with Care” and “End of the Line”. Roy Orbison died at the age of 52 in December,...

90. Wah Wah - George Harrison. On an album, All This Must Pass, of mostly lovely little tunes, this really rocks. I love the harmonies. And is that a race car engine revving at the end? Feeling: like playing air guitar. 89. Police on My Back - the Clash. Just for that guitar line that sounds like a UK siren. The harmonies aren’t as apparent in this version, but the frentic energy certainly is. Feeling:...
