‘Maxine’ was a bonus song on the 2007 reissue of Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1.

The song was mainly written by George Harrison, who sang lead vocals. It was completed after his death by his son Dhani, who added lead guitar and vocals.

And then the other songs… The song called ‘Like A Ship’, which is a big kind of folk song. And ‘Maxine’, which is a rollicking one, like a kind of Latin American type of thing. They got lot of fun things. They’re very interesting.”
