ELO

[Bozo]

no ELO = no Grandaddy

Stonerblue understands

Jason Lytle said in an interview once that he used to hide his passion for ELO because his skater mates would rip on him so much, haha. You can hear the influence in so many of his songs.

A couple of years ago before ELO started touring again properly they did a warm up show at the Porchester Hall in London, me and my bro managed to get tickets. Must have only been 500 people in there, one of the best gigs I've ever seen. Lynne is a national treasure.

Shite!

Not as bad as Queen though.

Throw the beatles in as well for good measure, just absolutely fucking shite!

However 'evil woman' is their best piece of work, so I'll throw them a small bone.

 

[Bpughh]

Thought this was a thread about chess

I was always told they were named after a Yorkshire greeting. Might not be true though!!

Telephone Lines for me great song simple lyrics perfection. Great band

favourite band growing up, then they released "Time" and it was downhill from there, early stuff still gets played occasionally particularly the early ones face the music/el dorado/on the third day, ma ma ma belle still a classic

never seen them live to my eternal regret, also partial to a bit of Wilbury when the mood takes

Revisit Time mate, a very underrated album.
