    Jeff Lynne, Bev Bevan, Roy Wood, and Richard Tandy (clockwise from top left), 1972 2828 PERFORMERS THEY ASSIMILATE DIVERSE MUSICAL ELEMENTS AND EPOCHS ELOINTO A SEAMLESS POP WHOLE. BY PARKE PUTERBAUGH Imagine a marriage of tuneful, rocking pop songs with instruments from the symphonic realm, and you’ve got the blueprint for what made ELO one of the most popular groups of the 1970s and beyond. Jeff Lynne, ELO’s vocalist, guitarist, songwriter, co founder, and frontman, conceived of a rarefied musical sphere in which cellos coexisted with guitars, and where classically tinged progressive rock intersected with hook-filled, radio-friendly pop. The result: ELO’s boundary-breaking approach to rock that resonated with a global audience, both as a pop singles act and as album-oriented rockers with deep-track appeal. ELO can variously be described as a Beatles-esque pop band, a classic rock band, a classical- rock band, and an act whose sprightliest hits filled dance floors. 29 Bevan, Lynne, and Wood (from left) during ELO’s performance on the U.K.’s Top of the Pops, 1972 It takes a rare talent to achieve the success Lynne pool and London, but a few of the local “Brum Beat” has had with a band that included two cellos and a bands – notably the Moody Blues and the Spencer Davis violin along with a conventional array of guitar, key- Group – made significant impact beyond the city’s bor- boards, bass, and drums: ELO landed twenty songs in ders.

  • The ELO Story
    The ELO Story Jeff Lynne was born in industrial Birmingham, England, on December 30, 1947. He grew up in the then- new Shard End City Council housing estate, a high-density residential development built on the eastern edge of the city right after the Second World War, with his parents Philip and Nancy.1 He had a brother and two sisters.2 Lynne’s grandparents in his father’s side were vaudevillian performers.3 More than thirty years later, Lynne would pay tribute to his birthplace in the ELO song “All Over the World,” which mentions Shard End alongside other cities like London, Paris, Amsterdam, Rio de Janiero, and Tokyo. Lynne was a Brummie, a nickname for those blessed with the notoriously thick local Birmingham accent.4 Brummie is shorthand for Brummagem, the popular West Midlands way of pronouncing Birmingham.5 Brummie also has an unfortunate alternative dictionary definition: “counterfeit, cheap, and showy.”6 The accent, which not everyone in the city shares, has even been described as representing the least intelligent dialect in the British Isles.7 Lynne grew up listening to Del Shannon, Roy Orbison,8 Chuck Berry, and The Shadows records.9 His parents did not always approve. About Roy Orbison’s “Only the Lonely” playing on the radio, Jeff said “[t]hey were complaining that it was too sexy, or something, but that voice just made the hairs go up on my neck.”10 At age thirteen, Lynne attended a concert by Del Shannon at Birmingham Town Hall, and from that point on dedicated his life to music.11 He noticed immediately that live performances

  • Ad Jeff Lynne Been Merely a Great Bandleader, Singer/Songwriter, Multi-Instrumentalist, Or Producer, His Place in the Pop Pantheon Would Be Secure
    40 Years Str angeof MagıBc ad Jeff Lynne been merely a great bandleader, singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, or producer, his place in the pop pantheon would be secure. But Lynne has excelled in all those areas, crafting four decades of great rock music Hdistinguished by irrepressible hooks, manic energy, and glorious production. Lynne grew up in Birmingham, England, where he made a splash as guitarist/vocalist and producer/songwriter for the Idle Race in the late ‘60s. In 1970, he joined the great British cult band Move, where he co-produced, wrote songs, sang, played guitar and keyboards. The same year, he co-founded the Electric Light Orchestra with Move bandleader Roy Wood. When Wood left to form a new group, Lynne assumed control of E.L.O., writing, producing, and singing hit after hit throughout the decade. Even today, it’s hard not to be bowled over by the impact and innovation of “Evil Woman,” “Mr. Blue Sky,” or “Strange Magic,” a song whose title perfectly summarizes the Lynne mystique. As E.L.O. wound down in the ’80s, Lynne was contacted by George Harrison to work with him on his album Cloud Nine . “We became great friends, and I had the greatest of times doing that album”, says Lynne. “It was while we were mak - ing the album that George suggested we should form a group. And to this day, George and me are the founding mem - bers of the Traveling Wilburys. A group I’m very proud to be in.” In 1990, Lynne unveiled his only solo album, Armchair Theatre , which was critically acclaimed.
