E.L.O.

Have always liked this one by the Electric Light Orchestra .. Telephone Line. It has some really interesting 'progressive' chords in it and I reckon it would be a good one to arrange on a keyboard.



And below is Rock 'n Roll is King. I don't reckon you could get anything more lively than this for a Rock & Roll number. No wonder we all went mad in our youth. I remember my Dad saying "Give me Bing Crosby any day".

ELO are one of my all time favourite groups, bettered in my opinion only by favourite group, The Beatles.

I have always loved 'Telephone Line' but, find it very hard to play, as there are I think 3 or 4 sharps, and some tricky chords. If I go real slow it's not too bad, but it's one of those that you never quite master, but keep coming back to!

Another of theirs that I love is 'Showdown' I had a bit more success playing that one on my AR organ.
