Album Review
Electric Light Orchestra continued on their winning Top 40 ways with the release of Discovery. Now pared down to the basic four-piece unit, Jeff Lynne continued to dominate the band and they still got their hits (this time around it was the smash "Don't Bring Me Down"). Elsewhere on the disc there was, of note, "Last Train to London" and "Confusion." Though Discovery charted well, it was becoming obvious that ELO were starting to run themselves out of useful Beatles hooks with which to fuel their hit-making machine. [The 2001 CD reissue on Epic/Legacy adds three previously unreleased bonus tracks: a home demo of "On the Run," a home demo of "Second Time Around" (a song Lynne never finished for the album), and a cover of Del Shannon's "Little Town Flirt."]
Customer Reviews
A great example of some disco ELO
Even with the box set, this is a must have. Last Train to London and Shine a Little Love are classics. Great road trip music IMHO.
Awesome Album
I remember going to the local record store to buy this on LP way back. Wow, memories...and umm, its groos (a made up word by the band) not gross or Bruce. However, ELO changed the word to Bruce later on as a result of so many people making the classic mistake. Sounds like another one for "scuse me while I kiss this guy"
"bruce"
it's not "bruce" in "don't bring me down"....it's "gross"
