Roy Wood is playing bass guitar on this album, isn't he?

[laineycrusoe]

@crapple009 Yeah. Roy plays bass on the whole of the album, but he may have been recording over Rick Price on some tracks.

Excuse me, I have many times judged may so called negative comments.

I don´t agree. But wasn´t this album released in autumn 1971 before the first ELO album in December 1971 ?

Only California Man single was released in 1972.

[laineycrusoe]

Yes, you're right, thanks for noting me. I'll change it round.

Jeff Lynne = The 5th Beatle

[FinnMove]

Jeff Lynne at his best.

This song belongs to the top 10 Jeff´s best compositions.

@archie977 Embrace the hurt, it defines and completes you. I find strangling a Katy Perry voodoo doll helps when the pain gets too great.

[bodiddley2007]

whoever is playing bass is copping Ace Kefford, and you can't.

I'm so thankful to have been open minded as an American teenager when this was released-none of my friends know it-who cares? Fabulous vocals...

[punditpete]

Brilliant album from a brilliant period of musical creativity. Sadly lacking today.

@larcombjill me too

[therealjohnnyenglish]

Nice gem!!

[dvfmliv]

Can't help but smile at the familiarity of both this song and "10538 Overture".

[archie977]

how do we escape this new stuff its tempting aggressive outragouse and eventualy sickening i like these old songs help me let go of the hurt

[predatorstriker]

@teddy1066 i have a guitar magazine

and actually they call him the final and last beatle

[larcombjill]

brilliant piece of music
