nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted April 8, 2013 When Roy died, the Wilburys considered adding a new member, most notably, Del Shannon. Do you know of anyone else the Wilburys considered? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoldenRose 18 Report post Posted April 9, 2013 Roger McGuinn is the only musician I can remember being considered. Nobody could replace Roy but McGuinn would definitely have been interesting. Didn't he work with TP and Jeff Lynne on an album once, sometime in the 90s? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelly 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2013 Isaak would have made sense to replace Roy. I don't think anyone would really replace Roy, because he's Roy! But Chris Isaak does have that superbly dreamy quality to his voice. I never knew that the Wilburys even considered any new members. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
