This piece has Roy Woods stamped all over it. Roy always seemed to be experimenting with outrageous ideas which would in turn lead to brilliance on offshoots like ELO, which it seems he got bored with and headed off in yet another direction. Bev & Jeff put their own stamp on it and sought (and gained) greater popular appeal. Jeff himself went that same route when he disbanded the strings in the group and while they still churned out good music....they were never the same!

Bev Bevan refused to play the drums on this track.
-
@dvfmliv Yes, I can imagine that, and can also picture Jeff and Bev giving each other a look as though they're thinking, "Ahh-dunno if this was really such a good idea."
-
You can imagine Jeff in the control room holding his head in his hands wondering why he'd got involved!!!!
-
It's the Move masquerading as the Electric Light Orchestra. Brilliant stuff!

That wonderful, but this is crazy musical fantasy.

Jeff should know, he was there. SF Bacon, I think.

I was introduced to ELO in 1979 with the Discovery album. I then began to buy the back catalogue. When I heard this song I thought it was utter crap and the rest of the album no better. However I was only 13. Now I think the song is very clever and when I hear it I am always reminded of the scary film Witchfinder General set during the civil war.
Lets face it the song is good but Jeff would never have made his millions by keeping to this formula.

Jeff didn't write this one Roy Wood did.
