I keep forgetting to check out the sub-forums...

Love this band, especially 'Eldorado'. Sublime.

ELO are utterly fantastic. There's something about their music that invariably makes me feel better, regardless of how good I already felt that day.

Maybe they should use ELO to treat people with depression!

I see no reason why it wouldn't work!

Pretty typical of classic disco era music as well.

I recently heard Diary Of Horace The Wimp at work and forgot how great E.L.O were. They probably are the very definition of dad rock but that doesn't detract from the fact that Jeff Lynne is a decent producer and musician.

To me they are as much pop as rock.

Another offshoot from another thread, as requested here's where we can discuss ELO, Jeff Lynne and all associated projects.

Hmm, does that include Traveling Wilburys?
