4 stars Everyone seems to have said it all, so this is brief. Yes, it's a great cocept album that smacks of a concert. Yes, I think people tend to overrate it a little (including me, I suppose), but I agree that this was a turning point in ELO's history. For me it is the weaker of the albums in their "Classic" period, but it is still an excellent release.

Can't Get it Out of My Head is still one of my all-time favorite rock songs... any band, any era. I also truly love Eldorado, where Jeff gives us a very rare glimpse of his vocal abilities. And Illusions in 'G' Major is a little cheesy, but it sounds like one of those "garage" songs a band does to have a little fun.

Solid rock album!
