Producing...Electric Light Orchestra... Considering so many people consider Prince a whiz for his production expertise, it amazes me that nobody's talked about Jeff Lynne and his studio mastery of the 1970s. I mean, damn, Eldorado is in my opinion, one of the best albums of that decade.
Who, if anyone, also likes ELO? and... Who else do you admire for their production abilities? "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith. If we crave some cosmic purpose, then let us find ourselves a worthy goal" - Carl Sagan | |

I love ELO.My favorite songs are...
"Evil Woman"(1975) "Strange Magic"(1976) "Showdown"(1974) "Sweet Talkin Woman"(1976) "Turn To Stone"(1977) "Shine A Little Love"(1979) I never get enough of their heavily orchestrated rock/pop sound which sounded so good on the radio back then. | |

i can't stand ELO, but for some reason i like jeff lynne as a producer... i like the work he did with tom petty (both solo and with the heartbreakers), george harrison, the travelling willburys, and so forth and so on... he's got a very distict sound...
but, i still can't get into ELO... i've tried, but it just ain't happening...  Mr. Ellis Dee-licious, the Official NPGigolo

"Showdown" is one of their best songs..."It's raining all over the world...it's raining all over the world". | |
