ROCK HALL OF FAME...It's more than time to induct Jeff Lynne as a solo artist like George, Ringo, Paul and John (They all were inducted as a band and solo artists). The great Jeff Lynne released his latest album in November of 2019 and was no. 1 on the UK chart. Jeff Lynne's ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA is still Touring! From 1972 to 1986 Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world. More than 50 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas and Stadiums. I saw them again in 2019 before the Pandemic on the North American Tour...( Best Concert of my life) All the reviews agree they are the best live Classical Rock Band still touring. Jeff Lynne is a Music Genius. ELO is in the Rock Hall of Fame. Jeff Lynne is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk OF Fame. Jeff Lynne’s ELO won the Best Classic Rock Band plus Lynne won the best Song Writer award ( ASCAP ) 2019 for his fantastic contribution over the years. In October of 2020, Jeff Lynne has been made an officer of The Order Of The British Empire for his extraordinary contribution to music. He created the best Super Group of all time with his best friend George Harrison "The Traveling Wilburys". They asked Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan to join this amazing band. The Legends in the Music Industry call Jeff Lynne the best overall Musician ever and a Producer Extraordinaire. Jeff Lynne has written and produced many hit songs for music legends like George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Brian Wilson, Paul McCartney, Bryan Adams, Aerosmith, Del Shannon, the Everly Brothers, and so many others... Long live Jeff Lynne’s ELO! Please Tour in 2022!
