Just crank the speakers and enjoy some ELO.

This was my favorite tune for a long while in the early high school times.



And another sweetie from the album Out Of The Blue.



And why not? Have another from the same album. This ones one of the best, I think.

Oh Man, I loved me some ELO back in the day. My favorite from that album was "Sweet Talkin' Woman". Thanks for the great videos.

One of my personal Top 10 songs is their rendition of "Roll over Beethoven". Best opening guitar riff of any song.... ever. Still get goosebumps when I hear it!

That last one is catchy. What's the title?

Never a large band for me...don't think I even have an album or cassette of them, but Beethoven wasn't too bad I suppose.

Too many strings not on a guitar I guess...bottom usually catches my attention, then the riff, then the lyrics (usually about 10 or 20 years later).

Jerry and the other Mike S. - Yep, those are great ones too. I've been listening to Out Of The Blue in the car the last few days and singin' along with two of these, so I wanted to see if Youtube had them. Saw they had "Roll Over" as well, but figured four vids would put me over the top. Go in and look for yourself though.

Goddess - Mr. Blue Sky. There's a great little symphonic bit at the end they don't do here that appears on the album. Love the toe tapping, sing along nature of it. Great tune.

Mushy - Dude, I hear ya. You know, I have different moods, and these days I'm in a mood to sing along. I almost posted that Cortez The Killer vid again last night, but the urge went away. As far as ELO goes, maybe you had to be there. They were so awesome sounding comin' out of that 8-track in the Hornet.

ELO blasting through my speakers in the office at 7:46am is fucking sweet!
Just what I needed, thanks bud!

Best of ELO is among my road music collection. I don't leave home without it. Good stuff. Love Rosie Vela, too - (she's in the third cli) - wondered what happened to her.
