Remember the Electric Light Orchestra

Anyone on this forum remember ELO? I have all of their original albums from the 70's and 80's but they are starting to show a little wear from play... Wonder why they have not re-released their best work on good quality, heavy duty vinyl? Seriously, Jeff Lynne is a bona fide musical genius.

I'm ready to re-buy all their albums!

Try the 'Out of the Blue' album, probably their best overall. 'A New World Record' is excellent also..

Wishbone Ash? Never heard of them, but love the name...

Who was the best, WA or ELO?

Agree tons of used out there. ELO was a big seller in it's time. I like the cover with the red slippers from Wizard of Oz...

They were both excellent British bands. I was into to both at the time so it was a real treat. At that time ELO was not at their mainstream super star status.. I liked them better before they went mainstream.
