TAKE THAT BACK

Ahead of Monday's release of Take That III, some fans have just gotten their deluxe editions - and to our surprise, there is nothing in the credits to suggest Jeff Lynne participated in any of the songs on the 12 track main album or the 15 track deluxe edition.  There's still the Google Play edition which contains 2 additional titles - but generally credits for 'bonus bonus' songs are rarely officially revealed.

The album, by the way, just became the most pre-ordered album at amazon.co.uk ever.

But if the credits are accurate - and despite the announcement and even a mention from Jeff about it - you can probably pass on this and stay tuned to see if Jeff is involved in any other released tracks.

ELO IN 2015??

Billboard Magazine is reporting on the heels of last night's Classic Rock Honours that Jeff Lynne will be bringing at least one live ELO show to the USA next year - and is planning to release a new album under the ELO banner.

CLASSIC ROCK ROLL OF HONOUR

Jeff Lynne was recipient of an award during the 10th Annual Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards last night at The Avalon in Los Angeles.  The show is available to hear On Demand (if you register with the site or log in through Facebook) and will be broadcast on internet radio later this evening - 8PM Eastern Time, 5PM LA time.
