Electric Light Orchestra (40th anniversary edition)

Description

Réissue on CD + DVD of their legendary first album Includes the tracks 10538 Overture, Mr Radio, Nellie Takes Her Bow. On the DVD: remastered quadrophonic version of the album from 2012 A masterpiece of retro-futuristic pop rock! An ambitious and visionary group, Electric Light Orchestra, led by Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood, was eager to record unique tracks from their self-titled debut album, well ahead of their time. Falling into the "symphonic pop rock" style that the Beatles initiated with I Am The Walrus, the tracks 10538 Overture, Mr Radio, and Nellie Takes Her Bow indeed left a mark, both for the quality of their writing and their Baroque'n Roll dimension. For its 40th anniversary, this CD+DVD edition extends the magic of the album, not only with alternative versions but also by offering all the tracks in quadrophonic sound, as conceived at the time. Remastered, these place Electric Light Orchestra at the heart of the prog-rock revolution of the early 70s. A fascinating experience, reflected in the cover designed by the Hypgnosis studio.
