Strange Magic they have. Her's a favorite of mine, another good example of the driving beat you mention and a very uplifting song: http://youtu.be/98P-gu_vMRc Love, Laura Sent from my iPhone On Apr 4, 2013, at 11:57 PM, jlhommedieu@insight.rr.com wrote: The jmdl often tolerates brief discussions of other artists. Can we talk about Electric Light Orchestra's writer, producer, & singer, Jeff Lynne? I saw a documentary about him featuring praise from Tom Petty, George Harrison's son, and Paul McCartney on Palladia (a cable tv channel dedicated to popular music of the rock era). It seems to me that Lynne had lots of good ideas as a producer, even though he seems to do the same simple drumming on every track. I like his approach to bombast, walking a line between ELP's grandiosity and the tuneful Yes songs. Some of his stuff makes for great top-down, driving music. "Do Ya?" and "Ma Ma Ma Belle" come to mind. I love what he did with Chuck Berry's "Roll Over Beethoven". I love every note on "Out Of The Blue", which was a double-LP back in the day.
