ELDORADO

Eldorado is a fine concept album that really feels like a symphony. The lush strings, intricate production and excellent compositions combine brilliantly to produce a genuinely progressive, interesting and moving piece with an atmosphere all of its own. If you like post-pepper Beatles, you'll probably like this. If you like later, poppier ELO and haven't heard their earlier, more proggy stuff, this is a great place to start. Then listen to all their albums... you may be pleasantly surprised.
