Help! I have a horrible addiction and I don't think it can be cured

I can't stop listening to Electric Light Orchestra music. Been listening to them and variations of them including the Traveling Wilburys and solo stuff from Jeff Lynne (absolutely no fricking ELO Part 2 - gag me. That's like asking me to listen to that Page/Coverdale album). Been pretty much listening to them non-stop for the last 24-48 hours.



I cannot wait for Lynne to tour in 2016! And I've been told that Richard Tandy will be on tour with him!

All the ELO and Lynne titles have been added to my Apple Music library (minus ELO Part 2).

Still have my original copies of Eldorado, Face The Music, A New World Record, Out Of The Blue and others on vinyl, but they are currently in storage.

Playing from my Mac and iPhone is just too damn convenient.

I have a handful of Wilburys outtakes on a George Harrison bootleg CD.

I only listen to that from start to finish!! But Out of the Blue is special because that was my first record ever bought and I still have it (vinyl)

who is a professor at Michigan. She is at least as ELO-obsessed as you are!
