RECORD COLLECTOR DISCUSSES THE EARLY YEARS

The first review of Electric Light Orchestra Live - The Early Years DVD comes from the UK's Record Collector magazine.  In short:

Truthfully, there are few signs that ELO are on the verge of becoming one of the biggestselling acts in the world, though Evil Woman confidently stakes its claim as one of the most accomplished pop singles of the decade. Something for everyone, then, but especially followers who prefer their musical adventure without any intergalactic window dressing.

The DVD is out 9 August in the UK, August 24 for the USA.

RINGO's 70th...

Ringo Starr celebrated his 70th Birthday with a concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.  He finished off With A Little Help From My Friends with help from some friends we recognize.
