Advantages: Lots of well known tracks, good british music Disadvantages: None
Well I thought I would start the new year on a happy note by reviewing a lively old album by a lively(ish) old group - The Electric Light Orchestra (or, as their friends and fans know them, ELO).
Was it a Christmas present? No folks, I actually went out and bought this myself. Make of that what you will! It was a mere case of, I had a version of their Greatest Hits on vinyl (or an LP to those of us who remember them), but I decided I ought to listen to these guys on a piece of modern equipment - namely a CD!
*** A Little Background Information on the Band ***

The Electric Light Orchestra was formed over 35 years ago by lead singer Jeff Lynne. Their popularity soared between 1974 and 1981 in which time they amassed 28 hit singles in the UK. The band split in 1986 and Jeff Lynne ...
Advantages: Brilliant rock classical sounds, great songs Disadvantages: None
originally on vinyl. It is also of interest that ELO made videos to accompany every track of the album. These have been now collected together and released as a bonus on the ?Out Of The Blue ? Live at Wembley? DVD.
(I originally purchased a Region 1 version of that DVD but it is now available in this country. If I can pursuade the Powers-that-be to include it I will produce a review in due course.)
The album is perhaps a little more ?main stream? than some of the earlier offerings. It is also perhaps shaded out from my all time favourite spot by ?Eldorado? ? but only just. I don't include 'Zoom' in this reckoning but I will publish a review of Jeff Lynne's recent album soon to explain why.
However 'Discovery' demonstrates the full range of the ELO sound, the combination of rock instruments with strings, the frankly upbeat rocker ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Discovery - ELO
Advantages: Contains all Madonna's greatest hits. Disadvantages: None!
nothing special. It is ok though, but nothing too fancy or striking. The cover has a baby blue background and a sort of emblem, picture, drawn nicely in gold, that runs from the top, to the bottom, of the cover. Inside the badge emblem are the words "The Immaculate Collection" and centred in the emblem and underneath that, is Madonna's name which is also written in gold handwriting . That's it really. No pictures. Just a gold colored, designed emblem, that states the name of this album. In my opinion it could of looked a little better and stood out more, but it does it's job as an album cover and is easily recognised as Madonna's Immaculate Collection album.
The Back Cover Of The Immaculate Collection CD
This really is a lovely back cover to The Immaculate Collection CD. It is much better than the front of this album and has ...
