"Wilbury Twist" is a song by the British–American supergroup the Traveling Wilburys and is the final track on their 1990 album Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3. The song was also released in March 1991 as the second single from that album.
The original music video featured cameos from many contemporary celebrities[2] including Jimmy Nail, Woody Harrelson, Whoopi Goldberg, Fred Savage, Ben Savage, Kala Savage, Thomas Guzman-Sanchez of Rhythm Tribe, Milli Vanilli, Cheech Marin, John Candy and Eric Idle.[3] The band and special cameos were shot at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles.[4] The DVD video in the 2007 box set The Traveling Wilburys Collection retains only a few introductory shots of John Candy and Eric Idle, otherwise simply showing the band members performing the song.[5]
