ELO

Just heard the first new one from Jeff Lynn's ELO, When I Was a Boy. It's not your typical ELO sound, but it might grow on me.

 

What is an ELO?

 

Bloody youngsters

 

I like most things Jeff Lynns being involved with

 

ELO - it's a Yorkshire greeting

 

Best feel good song ever, crank up the volume!
Hello there, todays forecast calls for blue skys.

 

unlike pete townsend "where's the book"

 

Mr Blue Sky was the exit music at my brothers funeral.

 

There was a really good BBC4 programme on him, worth watching

 

Did I ever tell you he was at the same senior school as me. Alderlea Boys Secondry Modern in Shard End Birmingham. He was in the year below me, and I didn't know him. And Richard Tandy's brother Robert was in the same class as me at juniors.

 

Namedropper!! In that case I was at school at Campion Comprehensive with Jo Whiley

 

Who?

 

Top DJ and tv presenter, formerly on Radio1 for years now on Radio2.

 

Another Dummy Brumie.

 

I've shagged Jo Whiley

 

You shagged Jo while he did what?

 

Wasn't Shard End a bit rough, or am I thinking of Ward End? I went to Sheldon Heath Comp, which was nice and yet rough at the same time. No one famous in my school though
