Answer 1

The correct year when Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan celebrated their roles in the formation of the Traveling Wilburys along with other members George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, and Tom Petty is 1988.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1988, just before Orbison's death, there was a symbolic celebration of both men's roles in bringing together folk, country, and rock in the almost accidental formation of the Traveling Wilburys: this famous supergroup included not only Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan but also George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, and Tom Petty. The Traveling Wilburys emerged as a testament to the collaborative spirit and genre-blending that characterized the late 1980s music scene. This group brought together icons from different musical backgrounds to create a sound that resonated with fans across the world. Roy Orbison's death shortly after the formation of this group added a poignant note to the supergroup's legacy.
