Review

Entertainment Weekly (12/1/00, p.98) - "...The most packed power-pop ouvre of the '70s, full of stark stacking effects whose sonic wit is still unsurpassed..." - Rating: A-
Q (3/01, p.117) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...As a singles band they were unbeatable. There are few pop songs better than, say, 'Telephone Line', 'Livin' Thing', 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head', 'Turn To Stone', 'Mr Blue Sky' and even...'Hold OnTight'..."
CMJ (11/27/00, p.17) - "...All the hits are here....ELO are a tremendous influence on the current musical landscape."

Formed in 1971 as a side project to the Move by Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, and singer/songwriter/guitarist/producer Jeff Lynne, the Electric Light Orchestra immediately revealed the Brits' genius in combining rococo pop songs with classical instrumentation. Though the multitalented Wood largely produced the band's debut, his departure pushed Lynne's style to the fore, as evidenced by the listener-friendly "Showdown" and crunchier "Ma-Ma-Ma Belle." Beautiful classical arrangements also grace "Mama." In 1974 the group's slickly produced pop rock cracked the Top 10 with the atmospheric ballad "Can't Get It Out of My Head."

Although ELO's sound became increasingly commercial in the late '70s, it was no less grand, as demonstrated by the violin arpeggios in "Livin' Thing" and the swirling, complex string arrangement of "Telephone Line." The group continued its chart success in the face of MTV and changing tastes with polished '50s style gems like "Rock and Roll Is King" and "Hold On Tight," before disbanding in 1986. Including previously unreleased tracks, and tunes recently completed by Lynne, FLASHBACK is a fine set.
