Can't Get It Out Of My Head By Electric Light Orchestra

Electric Light Orchestra's 2012 concert album Live brings together tracks Jeff Lynne and his band recorded for a PBS special at CBS Television City in 2001. This is the ensemble that toured in support of ELO's 2001 studio album, Zoom, ...

Tempting as it may be, it's not quite accurate to call Jeff Lynne the rock & roll George Lucas, a technophile who can't resist tweaking his famous older work to bring it up to modern standards. Unlike Lucas, Lynne doesn't ...

Digitally remastered by Joseph M. Palmaccio (Sony Music Studio, New York, New York). Though 1974's ELDORADO is subtitled "A Symphony by the Electric Light Orchestra" and features both a portentous spoken-word prologue and an instrumental finale, this album marks Jeff Lynne's ...

Recorded between 1974 & 1982. Includes liner notes by Jaan Uhelski. This 15-track hits collection provides a cursory but satisfying overview of the work of these hugely popular, orchestral-pop pioneers. Immediately recognizable for their electro-classical arrangements and "futuristic" production (courtesy of ...

Although ELO's mid-'70s string of albums--ON THE THIRD DAY, ELDORADO, FACE THE MUSIC, A NEW WORLD RECORD, and OUT OF THE BLUE--are substantial efforts, filled with exciting, inventive music, ELO was known at the time and forever after as a ...

The self-titled 1972 debut is represented only by the fantastic "10538 Overture," thereby beginning the revisionism that almost entirely eliminates the band's co-founder, Roy Wood, from its history. The somewhat disappointing ELO II has two abridged selections, "Kuiama" and an ...

Digitally remastered by Doug Sax and Robert Hadley (The Mastering Lab, Hollywood, California). Formed in 1971 as a side project to the Move by Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, and singer/songwriter/guitarist/producer Jeff Lynne, the Electric Light Orchestra immediately revealed the Brits' genius ...

The 1998 Holland collection Definitive Collection isn't really definitive, of course -- it's the kind of title common to budget-line discs or European and Asian-only compilations -- but it is a good sampler of ELO's hits all the same, containing ...

1990's ELO CLASSICS is a one-disc condensation of AFTERGLOW, the three-disc box set from the same year. With ELO CLASSICS, casual fans and interested neophytes don't have to spring for the full box to enjoy the benefits of the fully ...

Ignoring both the early years when Jeff Lynne co-led the band with his former musical partner Roy Wood and the less commercially successful '80s albums, ELO CLASSICS focuses entirely on the 1973-1979 glory days. Most of the monster hits, from ...

This budget-priced two-fer from Electric Light Orchestra includes the group's ambitious fourth album, Eldorado: A Symphony by the Electric Light Orchestra, which included the hit "Can't Get It Out of My Head," along with their platinum follow-up, Face the Music, ...

After racking up a string of hits in the '70s and early '80s, E.L.O.'s cosmic take on the wall of sound has aged remarkably well and influenced countless rock and rollers from Tom Petty and the Smashing Pumpkins to Andrew ...

Though Electric Light Orchestra are thought of today mainly as 1970s AM pop staples, it's essential to remember that, initially, their ranks included former Move leader Roy Wood, and their mission was to pick up where the Beatles left off ...
