ItemImageFollowing his stint as the leader of the Electric Light Orchestra, singer/guitarist Jeff Lynne forged an equally successful career in the '80s and '90s as a producer, with his distinctive sound gracing the latter-day records of many veteran rock & roll legends. Lynne began his career in the late '60s as the frontman of a group called the Idle Race, which recorded the album The Birthday Party for RCA in 1969.

I like Jeff Lynne's voice but I really don't like ELO. But if I'm judging him as a potential vocalist in the band, yeah, OK.

A supergroup needs members that can write songs, sing, play different instruments - but Jeff Lynne also adds to his resume the ability to produce.

As a fan of ELO I have often found that Jeff Lynne's contribution to music has been under-rated,not so much by the public (hence all the hit singles & albums),but by the critics. Ok so the songs were never about gritty teenage angst,more along the lines of space-age escapism.But I think that is what made his work so popular,for the listener to lose themselves in a world of lush lines & melodies,Eldorado/New World Record/Out of the Blue & Time being prime examples.And considering ELO was such a big group,Lynne was never afraid to poke fun at it in some of the songs. Well worth a listen.
