I and many others got to listen to our album Interesting how people forget and how the facts morph /change into something different.Why am I sharing this? Simply that I want People to know what I experienced at my second concert that was ELO: OUT OF THE BLUE TOUR. I really don't care if there are doubters.there are always people that don't want to think that something like this could happen, but it does and it did. Oh well.I was 17 years old and a young musician starting out since 10 years of age.

To those who don't know and or were not at the show in 78'/79', you could literally see Jeff Lynne turn away from the mic while his vocals were still coming out of the PA.IT WAS A FULL RECORDING ON TAPE from the album.you could tell!!! The solos were the only live part of the show.
You totally got what you deserved by Sharon Osbournes Father, Don Arden! Serves you right. Went to the OUT OF THE BLUE concert only to find out later it was all lip synced !!! They could not recreate their music live so instead they pulled a Milli Vanilli.before Milli Vanilli !!! Jeff Lynne.you still owe me and all the fans that went to your Fake Show with the lasers and flying saucer stage. What a TOTAL RIPOFF they were! At the time ELO was a favorite for me,and others.

Lynne's career as a producer would peak in 1995 with the recordings "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love," the first new Beatles songs since the band's break up in 1970, and the only real attempt at a band reunion. After producing all four of them, Lynne became a member of the Traveling Wilburys, the supergroup spearheaded by Dylan and Harrison. He opted instead to record and produce with pals Tom Petty, Rob Orbison, Bob Dylan, and George Harrison. They had already released several classic songs by the time this show was captured, including "Showdown," Ma Ma Belle," "Nightrider," "Poor Boy," and the already mentioned hits from Face The Music and Eldorado, all of which are performed at this timeless show.Īfter another half-dozen huge hits, Lynne brought the band's activity level down to a couple of LPs for pretty much the entire duration of the 1980s. By the time ELO released an innovative cover of Chuck Berry "Roll Over Beethoven" on their second studio LP, they were hit-bound.
Wood later formed the very eclectic (and British sounding) Wizzard and found his own success on the UK charts. Wood was out of ELO (and the Move officially disbanded) in 1973 after the first LP, which made it clear that Lynne wanted to take the band in a very structured pop direction. While Roy Wood had started experimenting with cellos, oboes, and other classical instruments on the final Move albums (which was the impetus to form ELO), it wasn't until Lynne's radio friendly hits started flowing, that ELO found the right formula: A blending of four-chord rock with lush string arrangements and Beatlesque vocals. ELO's debut album in 1971 came out almost at the same time as the final Move album, Message To The Country. Electric Light Orchestra was initially a side project of three of the four members of the Move, a swingin' London-based '60s British pop band featuring Lynne, drummer Bev Bevan, guitarist/vocalist Roy Wood, and bassist Rick Price.
