The best ELO album that Jeff Lynne produced.
Who can forget songs like: Mr. Blue Sky, Turn To Stone, Sweet Talkin`Woman and Wild West Hero. They are all here, + 17 more. That includes 3 previously unreleased songs. And one of they is a really treasure : Latitude 88 North.
You need this album........
I hadn't heard this album in years, but we all know the tracks, right ? I thought it worth getting again, and it is superb. It might not be that cool to like ELO anymore, but forget that and the fact that some tracks have a slightly borrowed feel to them, and the fact that the hi-fi sound quality is missing a bit, and just enjoy it. Some albums from this era have lasted well and this is one of them, also check out the first few albums from 10cc.
We know Jeff Lynne and those old enough remember all the tracks, listening to this again reminds you why you liked it first time out. Rip it to your iPod, love it all over again. If you've never heard it before but like a bit of a rousing tune, a belting chorus, go for it, don't be put off by thoughts of dinosaur rock !!
A guilty pleasure indeed.
Admitting to like ELO is not something one would usually do but I listened to this again after many years and can remember every single track. It really is a brilliant album.
I urge you to buy it if you are old enough to remember ELO and even if youre not give it a try. You wont be dissapointed.
This album is simply stunning, this is easily the best album i've ever bought, the classical music blends perfectly with the rock, superb!!! This is real music!!!
Overblown fantastic joy, out of the blue is one of the few double albums that works all the way through. However side three which it was now (track 10-13) on cd is one of the best experiences in music you will ever hear, i know am i saying this about elo,but even "take that" now use mr blue sky as an introduction to shine when preformed live. Oh and dr who used loads of elo in the story love and monsters, and how the songs stir. Shame the charts are cover with all that rap crap this is real music.
