Back when this song came out, I was at my uncle’s house and my cousin was playing this song on a reel to reel tape. Some time after that, I had a chance to choose a tape to get from the Columbia House Record and Tape Club. I thought of this song, but thought it was “Turn to Stop”. I looked through the catalog for albums available in reel format, and came across this album with “Turn to Stone” on it. I took a chance that it was the correct album, and it was. And what a great album it was.

If you have the chance to listen the recent "Wembley or Bust" it's actually better than the studio albums - the execution is astonishing. With the benefit of technology that wasn't available 45 years ago - they do the whole thing live - it's absolutely stunning". With a band / orchestra of that size I guess it had to be a venue as big as Wembley to make it worthwhile. And it's definitely worthwhile.

He is literally tearing through the soundtrack of a fantastic youth. Like, he needs pot medically to hear this much tasty music and not get hurt lol. I mean, damn, his ouptput is ferocious. We are watching a man do a dive straight down into the rabbit hole, based on our collective guidance. It's insane. The playlist is going to be epic in about, oh, already lol. Best Sunday Tunes Til Two in a minute.

That smile across your face at the intro is every reason why I've listen them for 30 years and will do on my death bed.

Remember how Boston’s spaceships are guitars? ELO’s spaceship is the top portion of a Wurlitzer jukebox- 2 top semicircle portions joined-

I discovered ELO when I was in the 6th grade in 1976. I had this hot youth minister who was in to them. I bought every album out so I could talk with her about music. Love ELO

Your musically appreciative joy is infectious! I grew up in the era of these songs and have heard many of them dozens of times, if not more. But you have me now not only hearing them, but "listening" to them in a way by which I am experiencing a rediscovery of the music, and often times, a first true understanding of the lyrics. I thank you.

That song from Frampton Comes Alive is better I think - love how the arena audience gets into it and responds to Frampton.

They don't call him the 5th Beattie for nothing.. Rock god, brilliant song writer and an amazing producer. He was in Traveling Wiburys. I saw ELO last year, if you get a chance to see them, GO.

ELO is like the British version of Parliament Funkadelic in the 70s. A big rocking or funky band fronted by a genius ahead of his time
