Jeff Lynne: Electric Light Orchestra - Before and After

Product Information

Limited to only 1,500 numbered copies worldwide, each hand-bound book is signed by the author, Jeff Lynne. 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.

Offering a rare behind-the-scenes look at Lynne's creative process and the incredible effort that went into making his landmark concert a reality, it's a must-have for both ELO fans and music lovers alike. From inauspicious beginnings in 1971, where live audiences barely reached double figures, ELO would become one of the most popular bands in the world by the end of the decade, thanks largely to the songwriting and production talents of Jeff Lynne; hits such as ‘Evil Woman’, ‘Mr. The show is a great night's entertainment, and is guaranteed to have you tapping your feet, clapping your hands, and singing along to all the great songs. Apart from Bev Bevan's 'The Electric Light Orchestra Story' (from 1980) I believe this is the only book written by someone who has been a member of ELO.

In particular, Dave's stories from ELO's Time Tour and then later working with Jeff Lynne and hanging out with George Harrison etc are a joy.

Ahead of the release of the book, ELO posted to Instagram in February to announce some exciting things would be happening throughout the year: '2021 marks 50 years of ELO.

The book also includes photography which captures the band on stage, the audience, behind the scenes shots, as well as band memorabilia. Following the huge success of their 1977 tour, ELO then released 'Discovery' in 1979, which reached Number 1 in the UK Albums Chart. Blending rock rhythms with classical influences, ELO also released many classic albums such as 'A New World Record', 'Discovery' and 'Out of the Blue', and many sell out tours which further established them as one of the most important and influential bands ever. The ELO Experience - The world's foremost multi award-winning tribute to The Electric Light Orchestra, have been bringing their music to the live stage since 2006.
