Official ELO thread

I totally forgot about ELO. I'm watching them now on YouTube. Wow. Happy but murky memories. Of what? I don't really remember, but it brings back happy times.

Jeff Lynne was the unwanted step kid in the Travelling Wilburys, never figured out how he belonged in that bunch.

Lynne produced albums for Harrison and Orbison around the time the Wilburys formed. Maybe some of the others as well.

ELO is one of those bands that when you hear their stuff...you instantly transport back in time...nice memories.

Jeff Lynne was arguably the best musician in the Willburys.

Except for a couple of tunes, I'd rather listen to someone scratch their nails on a chalk board.

Not a big fan but I took my wife to see them a few years ago and thought they put on a very good show. Liked the songs I knew but not real familiar with some of their less known stuff. My wife loved em.

BIG BIG ELO fan back in the day! "Out of the Blue" was played to DEATH!

A little ELO trivia

ELO holds the record for having the most Billboard Top 40 hits of any band in U.S. chart history without ever having a #1 single.

[Dave Mc]

Still one of my favorite bands. I'm not exactly sure why. I could listen to their "Time" album no matter what mood I'm in. Guess their stuff always takes me back. It feels so much a product of the time, yet it's still unique and not "dated" the way some things get.

<----------Love them!
I have a lot of respect for Jeff Lynne after what he did on the new Beatles songs when the Anthology came out.

[Mikey]

Is there ANYONE in the whole world that does not like The Electric Light Orchestra ?

I think not

ELO is truly the most unrated band of all time.
