ELO (The Electric Light Orchestra) were devised by Roy Wood and
Jeff Lynne of The Move as a fusion of rock and contemporary
classical-style music, combining orchestral instruments, guitars,
keyboards and drums in the same line-up. Their aim was to continue
from where The Beatles' 'I Am The Walrus' left off. After the
release of their debut eponymous album in 1971 and a few live dates
at home and in Europe, it became increasingly apparent that both
leaders' objectives were incompatible. Wood left Lynne in charge of
the group to refine their sound, and their ambitious progressive
rock epics gradually giving way to a more accessible style. With
keyboard player Richard Tandy and drummer Bev Bevan the only other
constant members in an ever-changing line-up, by the end of the
decade the group were rarely out of the British and American
charts. After disbanding in 1986, ELO Part II (minus Lynne)
returned for two albums, but Lynne reclaimed the name with an album
in 2001 and a long-awaited reappearance as Jeff Lynne's ELO in
2014. This book provides a comprehensive examination of all the
group's studio albums.
