ELO AGAIN are back with their stunning Re-Discovery Tour celebrating the truly universal music of Jeff Lynne and the Electric Light Orchestra. In his first official book, Jeff Lynne reveals the meticulous planning leading up to the epic Wembley or Bust concert, and shares the stories behind a career-spanning catalogue of songs. Book this live band now to avoid disappointment and experience one of the best tribute acts in the UK. In 1980, front-man Jeff Lynne wrote half of the soundtrack for the musical film 'Xanadu', which featured Olivia Newton-John.

From The Idle Race and The Move to ELO's beautiful songs ; from writing, singing and playing to producing, anything you have to know about The Man is here ! He later co-founded the Traveling Wilburys with George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty, and had a writing hand in their hits "Handle with Care" and "End of the Line". His production credits include Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Del Shannon, George Harrison, and even the Beatles on their two final singles in the mid-'90s. Steve Hemsley is the musical director of the band and is responsible for keys, special effects, and vocals. The Liverpool Empire Theatre is the largest two-tier theatre in the UK, hosting the very best in touring productions.These timeless songs are a must for any erudite corporate event, intimate birthday party, or as something different at a music festival. Yet, it wasn't meant to be as Roy Wood, Andy Craig, Bill Hunt and Hugh McDowell all quit to form another group, leaving Jeff Lynne to front the band. It's an incredible resource for a player like me who is beyond the beginner stage but is still groping his way toward club credibility. The author of about a hundred books, including historical and royal biography, popular music, true crime, local history, plays and fiction, he has also contributed articles to and reviewed books and records for local and national publications, was a consultant to the BBC documentary 'The King, the Kaiser and the Tsar', and is a contributor to 'Oxford Dictionary of National Biography' and 'Guinness Rockopaedia'.

Come along and relive the age of Glam Rock as ELO AGAIN pay tribute to the beautifully crafted songs of Jeff Lynne.When I wrote and recorded these songs originally, I never would have expected the fantastic audience response all these years later; it’s amazing. Since then, they haven’t looked back, releasing further albums to critical and public acclaim, culminating in ELO’s biggest ever live show in front of 70,000 fans, at Wembley Stadium and 2019’s chart topping album, From Out Of Nowhere. You will revel in ELO’s unique symphonic rock style and hear some of the most unforgettable classic rock and pop songs of our generation. Dhani has since performed with the band and was supposed to join them on their 'From Out Of Nowhere' tour in 2020, but it was cancelled due to Covid-19 restrictions. Un maravilloso libro que documenta con magníficas fotos el que tal vez sea el concierto más importante y reconocido de lo que va del siglo y quizá uno de los últimos espectáculos de tales dimensiones que veremos.

It was an unforgettable night and I'm excited to relive it with all of you again inside these pages. ELO Experience brings the heady days back with their tribute act wowing crowds at private and corporate events. Roy Wood, together with several other well-known Birmingham faces, left their respective bands to form The Move, an innovative group due to Roy s distinctive song-writing style, and the bands unique vocal harmonies. Blue Sky,” “Evil Woman” and “Livin’ Thing,” to the Traveling Wilburys’ “Handle With Care,” the career-spanning concert was performed for a capacity crowd of 60,000.It means so much to me to release this book during the 50th anniversary of ELO, and four years on from our Wembley Or Bust concert," says Lynne. Since 2014, he has played across Europe and North America, the high point for Lynne being his dramatic homecoming for a crowd of 60,000 fans at Wembley. This book tells a great story about the life of Jeff Lynne and how he has transformed the music industry during his career.

First published in 2018 in a limited run of only 1,500 signed copies, for ELO fans the original publication remains a highly sought-after item. Blue Sky and ‘Don’t Bring Me Down’; multi\-platinum albums like Out Of The Blue and Discovery, and, of course, their spectacular stage shows. As her demanding career has left little time for friends or romance, her deepest relationship is with her mother, Vera March, a Russian immigrant and MS patient .

ELO's first album was released in December 1971, after a year of testing and producing melodies with the instruments Roy wanted to use. It does a good job of explaining what Jeff is like as a musician and producer, however there is very little detail about Jeff's personal life and childhood. It means so much to me to release this book during the 50th anniversary of ELO, and four years on from our Wembley Or Bust concert.
