I can remember when the single for "Turn To Stone" from that album was released. My mother was bringing me and two of my older brothers Christmas shopping one night and it came on the car radio.
When the song got to the operatic vocal middle part, one of them said "Oh, this has just got to be Queen" and the other agreed. I said "No, it's not" (but I couldn't remember who it was as it was just recently released). They laughed at me because I was 3 and 6 years younger than them. They weren't laughing later when we got home and I played the 7" single by ELO I had just bought.
Micah, if you like ELO, I strongly recommend getting "ELO's Greatest Hits". There are only 11 songs on it, but every one is really good in my opinion, and it should be pretty easy to find on vinyl for a reasonable price.
Not Tom or Trey or Jim just Micah

I've always thought the goal of high-end audio was not to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Turn that darn music down' but to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Tell your friends to go home and you can practice later this week'.

Finished DSOTM, and I’m now listening to The Beatles 1962-1966.

I have that on DVD as well. I pull it out and melt into it a few times a year on a weekend. The last show Layne Staley did IIRC . you could tell he was in a fog on stage.

Saying that it's "too hard" to pursue your dreams is no different than admitting to yourself that you are too lazy to achieve them.
“If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.”

IMHO one of the best things he’s done in a while.
