The Traveling Wilburys Collection - now at a bargain price

UK readers who’ve held off buying The Traveling Wilburys Collection might be tempted by the new £10 price at supermarket chain Morrison’s.

At £10, even those who bought the originals on release might now add the reissue to their collection. At that price, the extras – DVD, booklet and packaging – are probably worth having. For the fan, there’s a price point below which every Dylan product, bar none, is worth having. Wilburys at £10 is such a point.

The new low price for The Traveling Wilburys Collection is part of an aggressive discounting campaign by the value chain, pricing its chart albums (eg the White Stripes’ Icky Thump and the new Clash compilation) at a challenging £7.

Yet one more reason to shop at Morrison’s… .
