Our Take

ELO's "Out Of The Blue" is a cosmic rollercoaster of a record that will take you on a journey through the stratosphere and back again. From the opening notes of "Turn to Stone," you're transported to a world where every riff and rhythm is designed to make you nod your head and tap your feet.

Jeff Lynne's production on this album is nothing short of spectacular, with layers upon layers of lush instrumentation that will have you picking out new delights with every listen. The record is a sonic playground, with each song offering something new and exciting to keep you coming back for more.

Tracks like "Mr. Blue Sky" and "Sweet Talkin' Woman" are instant classics, combining catchy melodies with a healthy dose of space-age synthesizers to create a sound that is uniquely ELO. And let's not forget "Wild West Hero," a six-minute epic that will have you reaching for your imaginary cowboy hat and riding off into the sunset.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Out Of The Blue." The album also takes some darker turns, with tracks like "Night in the City" and "Starlight" exploring themes of loneliness and longing. It adds a depth to the record that elevates it from a mere collection of catchy tunes to a thoughtful and introspective listening experience.

Overall, "Out Of The Blue" is a triumph for ELO, showcasing their ability to blend rock, pop, and orchestral elements into a seamless and unforgettable whole. So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare for a ride that is out of this world.
