ELO and M&S

[BliarOut]

Anyone else felt compelled to buy the ELO album since it's appearance on the M&S advert?

It just had to be done I'm afraid :yes:

[z4monster]

Put the album down and step away from the counter.

I thought that you'd probably have it in your collection from the first time around?

[BliarOut]

My dad had it on tape

brummy prog/soft/pop type


Er....

Desperately trying not to succumb. Trying not to even think about it but was the original a gatefold album with the cardboard cut out and make spaceship?


No - I'm not even going to think about it anymore.....



"Out of the Blue" wasn't it?


D'oh!!!

Knew it, all the weirdo's come out the woodwork.

Ted mentioned safeguards concerning trolls, perhaps he should ask a trick question at verification.

Mine was a tape, so we never got the spaceship ...... Go on, you know you want to. www.cd-wow.com
"Mr Blue Sky" and the top down..... Come on

Edited to add:
Spooky, bang on cue, they have just started advertising the ELO album on TV.... Must be on the back of the M&S advert.

To some it's just music, to me it's memories of fabulous holidays on the Algarve as a ten year old

I was introduced to ELO listeningto my brother's LP's

ELOwere one of the most tuneful groups of the 70's/80's

Apparently, John Lennon told Jeff Lynne once, that if the Beatles had kept going, he'd have liked them to sound like ELO

[NiceCupOfTea]

ELO, what a great band! Wasn't their "Four Little Diamonds" on the GTA Vice City soundtrack?

Won't hear a word said against Yes and ELP either!

[gemini]

Oh - Wild west hero

Satch - that album would look fine next to my three degrees GHs
