The Fat Angel Sings

Birmingham Musician and ELO founder returned to the stage for his first full UK show as part of “The festival In A Day” at Hyde Park in central London, at 66 years old it was Lynne’s first time on stage in for nearly 30 years, accompanied by the BBC concert Orchestra and original ELO pianist Richard Tandy opened with the song “All Over The World” and then the hits came thick and fast “Livin Thing” ,Evil Woman” then “Showdown” Jeff Lynne’s voice was as good as ever on “Strange Magic” and especially “Can’t Get It Out Of My Head”A suprise version from the Travelling Wilburys album “Handle With Care” then the climatic ending with “Turn To Stone”, “Don’t Let It Bring You Down” and “Mr Blue Sky” it was eighty minutes of pure enjoyment and great musicianship the band seemed genuinely moved by the overwhelming crowd response Lynne is now living in Hollywood He prefers to produce and play in his home studio having many offers to perform Live. The highlight for me was 10538 Overture jeff looked so relaxed
