Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
You can't make a meal of bubblegum, but it sure can be a delicious distraction. ELO's Greatest Hits is filled with gooey, chewy delights--sonic kitsch like "I Can't Get It Out of My Head" (Lennon on Lithium), "Telephone Line" (Kool & The Gang with violins), and the irresistible "Turn to Stone" (Wagner in spandex)--cultural guideposts, whether you want to admit it or not. ELO combined classical elements with electronic rock and their influence can still be heard in new Turk bands playing with Moogs--for all their Beatles-in-space trappings, the group was also pretty damn catchy. Early ELO was spotty, with flavorful items like "Strange Magic" popping out of the lab nevertheless. By the late '70s, producer-songwriter-singer Jeff Lynne had his electronic pop chamber-group machine oiled to perfection, and this package contains a heavy dose of those longer-lasting-flavor years, with well-chosen dabs of essential chewing pleasure. --Don Harrison

- THE FIFTH WILBURYThis album is Terrific, you will know most all the tunes from radio. 11 songs just enough, no filler like so many Hits albums. Lynn's arangements and textures are amazing, I never knew he was such a force in the Wilburys. Sure wish he would form a new Wilburys style band, maybe KD Lang, Nils Lofgren, Petty, Dylan & Lynne of course. Yeah Jeff give them all a call.

- Excellent. ELO RocksI recently heard Strange Magic playing on the radio, and for a while I kept wondering who played that song, until I found out it was ELO. I decided to buy a cd from ELO. I wanted to try a new rock group out for a change, instead of the rock bands I usually listen to. I've never really heard any of their music, until I listened to ELO's Greatest Hits, and now I like listening to them. Strange Magic is one of the most beautiful rock songs I've ever heard (along with Echoes from Pink Floyd, and Ramblin ... Read More

- It's Strange MagicI am really happy I bought this cd. I originally bought it just for the songs "Strange Magic" and "Livin' Thing," but I was pleasantly surprised to find the whole cd (from beginning to end) is great! I did not realize that I was an ELO fan until I heard this cd. I recognized so many other songs from movies and commercials. It is a great collection. Definitly a great introduction to unique music.
Highly recommend.

- Good compilationSlightly odd this one as I don't recall all of these being hits (in the UK anyway). But maybe some were big in other countries. As a brief overview of their 70's material this pretty good.
The big UK hit singles that made them a huge band are all present and correct. The best is without doubt Mr Blue Sky (which I think acheived their highest chart placing) a marvellous piece of pop and cleverly arranged as well. I still like Rockaria as well, a great rocking tune with a hint of Dylan near ... Read More

- still great!this has turned out to be a really fun purchase...the only song i could wish it had is "don't bring me down", but otherwise it has all the songs i remember fondly. my original intent was to introduce the music to my 18-year-old music major son, but we have very much enjoyed it too.
