2017 Musical
United Kingdom
1h 58min
With a new crew of bandmates, Jeff Lynne recreated the classic ELO experience at London's Wembley Arena in June 2017, adding a few new twists along the way. Here, the titanic pop hooks and epic orchestral sweep of ELO hits like the rocking 'Don't Bring Me Down,' the Beatles-esque 'Mr. Blue Sky,' and the longing 'Telephone Line' are rendered with an almost revelatory physicality. Lynne also puts a new spin on his old supergroup The Traveling Wilburys' 'Handle with Care' and ELO's 1980 soundtrack collaboration with Olivia Newton-John, 'Xanadu,' by singing lead on both.
