The whole idea of ELO was conceived by Jeff Lynne was to pick up where The Beatles left off. He thought they broke up too soon, there was much more they could have creatively written. But he imagined where the Beatles would have fit into the new decade that was the 70s. They came up with dazzling light shows with fluorescents, laser lighting, synthetic sounds, ect.

@@bagelj Sorry you are wrong from the beginning there, ELO was Roy Wood's original concept, not Jeff Lynne's. Roy Wood was writing songs for The Move in 1967 and 1968 that his producer Tony Visconti had added a string section to giving them a classical /pop fusion sound. Roy liked the sound that Visconti was creating and he thought wouldn't it be great to have a band with it's own string section who could play the music instead of paying session musicians. Meanwhile Jeff Lynne was toiling away trying to have some success with his band, The Idle Race, Lynne's producers Chevin & Offord were adding a string section to some of The Idle Race songs. Jeff too liked the sound and when he met Roy Wood and Roy told him about his Electric Light Orchestra project, Jeff asked Roy if the could come onboard with Roy's new band. Roy agreed to let Jeff to get involved in The ELO project, there was only one problem, Roy was contracted to EMI's Regal Zonophone label and Jeff was contracted to United Artists Liberty label. So that both songwriters could be contracted to the same label, Jeff agreed to leave the unsuccessful Idle Race and join Roy in The Move providing Roy retired The Move and went ahead with his ELO project. Jeff Lynne joined The Move in February 1970, between mid 1970 and early 1972, Wood and Lynne were writing for both The Move and ELO. Due to problems caused by the bands management, Roy Wood quit ELO in June 1972 and formed Wizzard, Wood took ELO members Bill Hunt and Hugh McDowell with him to Wizzard, Bill played keyboards and Hugh played cello and Moog synthesiser. In late 1973 Hugh left Wizzard and returned to ELO.

Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra from The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame site: "Picking up where the Beatles left off, ELO expanded the concept of great melodies, epic song structures and grand orchestrations. ELO added an exciting mix of elements into rock and roll, including disco rhythms and electronic studio wizardry. Imagine a marriage of tuneful, rocking pop songs with instruments from the symphonic realm, and you’ve got the blueprint for what made ELO one of the most popular groups of the 1970s and beyond. Jeff Lynne, ELO’s vocalist, guitarist, songwriter, co-founder, and frontman, conceived of a rarefied musical sphere in which cellos coexisted with guitars, and where classically tinged progressive rock intersected with hook-filled, radio-friendly pop. The result: ELO’s boundary-breaking approach to rock that resonated with a global audience, both as a pop singles act and as album-oriented rockers with deep-track appeal".
