Hi there Rob,

You mentioned three very important words for me. E, L and O! The Beatles aside, ELO have been my biggest influence. I couldn’t get enough of their early stuff, especially A New World Record and El Dorado. Really disappointed that Jeff Lynne didn’t bring his recent tour to anywhere in the southern hemisphere, and it now seems he’s unlikely to be able to do much more…..sorry, I digress.

Thank you for the like and high praise. I hadn’t thought about the Hollies, another exceptional band, but I can see/hear how the build in intensity through the verses is akin to some of their material.

Thank you buddy, kind regards
