The Eldorado CD re-issue I have contains an extra track "dark city". I'm curious what people think of "dark city" versus anything else ELO did (that I can recall).

It's only 46 seconds long, sounds quite raw and unpolished, but then again it was a demo of an incomplete song and I'm sure not in the final form Lynne would have intended. I'm a Lynne and ELO fan but I wasn't too impressed with it.

I LOVE it. According to the notes, it was an early demo of what became Loredo Tornedo, but I don't much hear a similarity.
