that was my route into this band's music, my dad had the "out of the blue" album, and i learned how to work the record player and play it through the great big heavy headphones

I'm quite a fan - there was a period a couple of years back when Mr Blue Sky was all over TV, so I got into them that way - although I'm sure I must have heard them on one of my dad's cassettes at some point.

I think they're great and Jeff Lynne's a genius. Their Ultimate Collection has lots of great tunes on and Mr. Blue Sky should really be our national anthem

Hate them, sorry, but I did use to live around the corner from one of them , the drummer I think. Use to see this geezer with curly-wurly hair driving an e-type jag with ELO 3 on the number plate.
