Electric Light Orchestra fans rejoice! Jeff Lynne performed a full set of ELO yesterday including one from The Traveling Wilburys at the Radio 2 Live  in Hyde Park in London. He was backed by the BBC Concert Orchestra and it was a truly beautiful and really rocking. Hopefully this will be the first of more shows like this. According to Vintage Vinyl News, "if all went well with the show, he was seriously considering a world tour."

I've been an ELO fan ever since A New World Record in 1975 and I remember buying Out of the Blue at Zayre in Augusta for 3.99 in the cutout bin. This video of Mr. Blue Sky from Hyde Park yesterday brought tears of joy to my eyes. Just perfect.
