Advantages: Very easy to listen to, very emotive messages between the lines, an all-time classic! Disadvantages: It could be seen as rather dated by certain age groups
a life that was tinged with very definite shades of grey, mood-wise....simply because the music in itself is so very powerful and oozes atmosphere, plus it just reminds me of those rather dark days of being wedged inside an unfulfilling marriage.
It wasn't until much later (early 1990s) that a very good and dear friend re-introduced me to ELO, recommending that I listen to their work with my up to date ears and life perceptions - so, I did, and I was very surprised. Their work, which I had always previously considered so dull and plodding - even painful to listen to - suddenly began to fascinate me. I began to see a kind of a story emerge from a series of ELO's albums, from their 1976 release, "Out Of The Blue" through to their 1983 release, "Secret Messages" (which was the album that followed "Time"). The whole story throughout this set ...

Advantages: Brilliant rock classical sounds, great songs Disadvantages: None
Electric Light Orchestra were one of THE bands of the 1970s. Formed by Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne from the ashes of The Move, they fused the sounds of the rock band with elements of the classics. Things did not go according to plan, at least in Wood?s mind and after two albums he went his own way (with Wizard and others).

At the time of this album ELO were in their fully established line up of Jeff Lynne (Lead guitar and vocals), Kelly Groucutt (Bass and vocals), Richard Tandy (Keyboards), Bev Bevan (Drums), Mik Kaminski (violin), Hugh McDowell (cello), Melvyn Gale (cello). I had the great fortune of seeing them at Newcastle City Hall during their UK tour in the late 1970s.
This review is primarily of the CD release although I did own the album ...

Advantages: Lots of well known tracks, good british music Disadvantages: None
Well I thought I would start the new year on a happy note by reviewing a lively old album by a lively(ish) old group - The Electric Light Orchestra (or, as their friends and fans know them, ELO).
Was it a Christmas present? No folks, I actually went out and bought this myself. Make of that what you will! It was a mere case of, I had a version of their Greatest Hits on vinyl (or an LP to those of us who remember them), but I decided I ought to listen to these guys on a piece of modern equipment - namely a CD!
