The album isn't available on Spotify
It's on Grooveshark though: Traveling Wilburys - Vol I (http://grooveshark.com/#!/album/Traveling+Wilburys+Volume+1/553273)

I have chosen the album Vol. 1 from 1988
This is the first studio album from the super group Traveling Wilburys.
I have been a fan of this album since it came out when I was 10 years old, loving the different vocals along with extremely catchy tracks. If you haven't heard this album try it out, I'm sure you'll love every minute!

For me The Travelling Wilburys score a 10/10 without a doubt. In fact, I posited the opinion that The Travelling Wilburys were probably the best 'supergroup' ever. :)

Certainly this is truly a Supergroup given the personnel, it would be a bit harsh to expect any of the excellent work they have produced in their careers on this album.
Five singers with guitars is what they are and thats what you get, all the songs are cheerful enough, a couple of good 'uns and a real gem in "Tweeter and the Monkey Man" .
8/10

10/10 from me. I bought it on vinyl when first released and still play it regularly.

One of the groups I still listen to and the music still has it for me. not everyday listening but the bonus is that they were having fun and not trying to be superstars....it shows in the relaxed performances. End of the line and Dirty world are probably my favorites on this album. A strong 8.5, so 9 for the vote.
