I get that you kind of worship at the altar of ELO...but ELO Part 2? Really? ELO WITHOUT Jeff Lynne is one of the best anythings ever?

Shocked


Ordinarily, I'd agree, however, let me just say that this one album is an all-time favorite for sentimental reasons among other things, otherwise, I do not care about ELO Part II on Moment of Truth or anything else!

I have a compilation cd with his three first albums presented in chronological order where The Shape of Jazz to Come is the last one. The two prior albums are in a more traditional bop style

Technically, Welcome to My Nightmare was Alice's first solo album, so would that count as a debut album?
