The forum in which all human experience resides. Especially for fans of the now-deceased original Hall of the Wendigo. Still Number One with the core demographic.

Have we had this conversation before?
Or was it just me...
In one Summer dream?

Very good production. One too many borrowed tunes for my tastes.

That was an odd album. 50% Eldorado and 50% A New World Record. Side 1 is clearly superior to Side 2. Overall, it's one of my least favourite ELO records even though it has some good tracks on it.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

The album has lots of ambition, but the songs don't quite match up to that ambition.
Obviously they eventually would.
Like it or not.
Hmm...
