Synopsis

On a sunny day in September 2014, Jeff Lynne, head honcho of 70s hit-making band ELO, took to the stage in London's Hyde Park and, with the help of his backing band and the strings of the BBC Concert Orchestra, brought to a close Radio 2's Live in Hyde Park annual festival. After an absence from the live stage for 28 years, this headline set by Jeff Lynne's ELO was a much-anticipated and talked-about event. In front of 50,000 people, Jeff Lynne delivered a rousing and crowd-pleasing string of the Electric Light Orchestra's chart-topping hits, including Livin' Thing, Sweet Talkin' Woman, Don't Bring Me Down, Mr Blue Sky, and Roll Over Beethoven. And there was also Jeff's touching tribute to his band buddies from Traveling Wilburys, in his performance of their 1988 hit Handle With Care.

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Prismark10 Jeff Lynne has spent the last three decades on studio work as a renowned and in demand producer.Plans for an ELO concert in 2001 had to be nixed because of low ticket sales. ELO were deemed to be unfashionable and uncool.In 2014, 28 years after their last live stage appearance Jeff Lynne's ELO played in front of a crowd of 50,000 people in Hyde Park for BBC Radio 2's Live at Hyde Park music festival. The tickets sold out in no time. ELO are back in fashion, the songs irritatingly catchy and timeless.Lynne admitted to being nervous returning to the concert stage, with his long standing keyboardist Richard Tandy he delivered crowd pleasing hits such as Livin' Thing, Strange Magic, Sweet Talking' Woman, Don't Bring Me Down, Rock n Roll is King, Roll Over Beethoven and Mr Blue Sky. For a special treat, Lynne sings The Travelling Wilbury's Handle with Care.You simply cannot beat a bit of ELO. The audience loved it.
