I have to agree with the Jeff Lynne supporters out there. Yeh, his
production on the Petty, Harrison, Wilburys, et al albums gives them all
that bank of acoustic guitars/compressed drum sound but I think he brought
out some of the best work these guys have done. Besides, I really like ELO
too, even the much maligned "Discovery". Hey did anybody see the review of
Wilco's new one "Summerteeth" that cites ELO as a possible influence? Does
anyone else who has heard the album agree?

I agree. And there's also Roy Orbison's "Mystery Girl" album which has
Jeff Lynne stamped on several of the songs, and it works so well, at
least
for my ears.
Besides, I really liked ELO.

Ah, "Mystery Girl".... evoking memories of a late night in January
1989...
...uh, never mind, y'all.
