They really weren't. Wilburys were a supergroup full of great songwriters. Even Clapton isn't a great songwriter.

He never fully retired. But he was playing catch up when he found out that his accountant and friend had screwed him over and squandered his money. A bit like Paulie in Rocky V

Sad day, Irish legend, who'll be fondly remember by majority of the country as one the greats.

Still think his interview and subsequent reaction to Stephen Fry's beliefs was a highlight

Peter Collins is a broadcasting genius compared to Tubridy! Byrne always came across terribly, very rude, smug and condescending. He wouldn’t have made it anywhere other than RTÉ. The legacy he has left behind in the shape of his former gopher is even worse.

Or the night Byrne more or less accused Annie Murphy of corrupting Eamon Casey. "A Good Man" Byrne said.
Such a good man that he wanted her to give up their child for adoption to protect his image. And then the other scandals that followed...
 
A good man, said St. Gaybo...

He came across very bad in the Gerry Adams interview.

He took advantage of the ignorance of the country to make himself topical then the country woke up and he hated it. He sold himself to all sides. Too soon to say what I really think..
