ELO

[ceagle]

An ole friend (Telbert) sent me an ELO link, and I proceeded forth to listen to many of the old songs, enjoying along the way...
And then I came across this fave ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jUvhJ_Tgzw ...

I can hardly hold back the tears on that one (mixed, but mostly tears of joy)... it sends me back to so many times and places I cherished, and the song had been there with me....

Huh, my krew back in the day never saw APP or ELO as fluffy bands at all, things were different in Arizona I guess?

Always liked APP, was very lucky to catch them live when they did a brief US tour. Never got to catch ELO, my loss for sure.

Cheers!

Luckily Lynne is still touring... I've considered going to one of the shows, but still undecided if the 'live' experience will be special enough beyond the recordings...

Consider that many of the musicians that played on the Midnight Special show are either retired or have passed on, maybe you should put a few nickles in the jukebox and go see Jeff while you still can...

CYa!

As if this site was being monitored by super secret social media spies...guess who one of the biographies on CBS Sunday Morning was about yesterday...Jeff Lynne! It was a good segment. He's still packing them in. I think they came here to a local casino not too long ago, and stupid me, didn't get tickets.

mwahahaaha! If it is, let's hope they use their powers for good! :D

I think I saw Seattle on the tour venues, and toyed with a visit up there... wasn't in the cards this time around...

Here's hopin' there's another chance for us both!
