I just got into ELO recently, and they're becoming my favorite band. Anymore fans?

"Turn To Stone" and "Don't Bring Me Down". Can't do any better.

After you discover ELO, you can go back further. Before ELO, Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne were part of a super 60's group called The Move, who have their own colorful history, and a long string of hits.
I highly recommend from their later days, "When Alice Comes Back to the Farm".
Has all the blueprints for what would become ELO right there.

Happy listening.

Those are all fantastic songs. I've gone through like six of their albums already. I really like "Mr Blue Sky" "the diary of Horace wimp" "don't bring me down" "evil woman" "livin thing" etc

I will listen to the move

Thanks!

I'm a fan of their stuff, though I prefer their earlier albums before Jeff Lynne discovered the synthesizer. Can't beat "10538 Overture" or "In Old England Town".

I love both of those songs! 10538 Overture is pure brilliance.

I like ELO as well.
"Mr. Blue Sky" "Don't Bring Me Down" and "Wild West Hero" are my favorite songs by them!
