Incredible band as well! "Mr. Blue Sky" is my fave by them.
ELO's Discovery was the first album I ever won from a radio station. Third caller, WLOF ( a station long since gone under here in Fl.
) I was ecstatic! Love it, especially Horace Wimp on the second side.Bri

Diary of Horace Wimp and Last Train to London are two of my faves from the album as well. All of the songs from that album trigger different memories for me... Mr. Blue Sky is one of my kids' favorite songs, too.
That was one of my dads favorites too. I like most of their songs, but Free Bird is my favorite.

Every Christmas our family has a tradition. We listen to the Alabama Christmas album while me and my sons decorate the tree. In July 2004 after 2 years of daily care we buried my father in law who I was closer to than my own father. My husband completely buried his emotions and never shedd a tear, he never allowed himself to grieve his fathers passing and it was taking a toll on him and our entire family. His mom, brothers and sister were all suffering not knowing how to move past his loss. For Christmas I made my husband a movie similar to this using this song. Needless to say he was able to finally grieve the loss of his father. He showed it to the whole family at our Christmas Dinner where everyone cried and balled but then they started talking good fun memories and realized everything would be okay. Through the tears we learned we can laugh again and that there were many more happy memories than the sad one they were all cllnging to.
I began the movie showcasing pictures of them when they had their christmas then after the part where daddies not there in his chair I changed the focus to their grandkids the little ones, the future of their family.

The night we buried my father in law we had to rush my mother in law to the hospital. Which began her 2 year battle of daily care. My mother in law died in May 2006 and the family could do nothing but cry and mourn her passing. I made another film to get them to laugh again. Except this time it was so different. I made one film in night vision of my 2 sons dancing in grass hula skirts, tribal wigs and bone necklaces at the foot of our bed to "A Lion Sleeps Tonight" where I had pillows under the covers like my husband was there asleep so my kids would point to the "Lion" when it got to that part then I sliced in actual footage of my husband sleeping. My sister in law kept saying "Jonathan how could you sleep through all that!!"
Then we done a second film where my youngest in front of our Christmas Tree wore a Suit and Tie holding a string of bells. He said this before the song started playing "I love all of y'all and no matter how old I get I'll always come home for Christmas." The way the song starts you think the song is "I'll be home for Christmas" but it is actually "I'll be home with bells on" It starts with my youngest in a suit and tie shaking his bells. Then he sings the Kenny Rodgers part. Then when it comes to the Dolly Parton part they all expected me to be doing it BUT I had my oldest son in a blonde wig, HUGE BEWBS, a dress and bells all over his dress especially 2 bells on his bewbs that he would shake. HILARIOUS!!!!!!! When my oldest son jumped in beside my youngest son and was singing the Dolly Parton part shaking his bewb bells. The whole family burst out laughing and my nephews hit the floor rolling. Then at the end of the song my youngest son stepped out of view to take of the suit and tie and put on a christmas hat while I focus on my oldest lip singing another Dolly part. He then jumps back in to show his bells that he is shaking on his ..... That Christmas we learned it was okay to laugh again.

I'm surprised that some of you Joan Jett fans don't remember where she got her REAL start... along with Cherie Currie and Lita Ford!!
(and with the help of the very creepy (I met him once) producer, musician, songwriter Kim Fowley)
Kinda funny how the cameraman switches to Joan right after Lita starts her solo...
What an idiot!!!

Another one of Kim Fowley's pet projects back in the early 70's was the pretty-boy pop band, The Hollywood Stars.
I knew a couple of the guys through some mutual friends who were in another band at the time, and have quite a few photos that I took of them playing around town... Because of a lot of twists and turns, their album never got released... until last year!!!
Although a couple of their songs got recorded by some bigger name acts... like this one that Kiss did:

Ain't it amazing what kind of lasting impressions TV can have on a young boy.

One day about 9 years ago I was on my way to pick up my Mom to go out. Before I left the house I was listening to this song - it's not a really common song and it's pretty old! When I got to my Mom's she was in the kitchen finishing up some dishes in the sink and singing, "well I've got a brand new pair of rollerskates...". My jaw dropped! lol My Mom was more of an Englebert Humperdinck fan and of all the old and more well-known songs she could have been singing, she was singing this one! She always could get in my head (which was kind of a buzzkill during my teen years...). Yesterday was the 7th anniversary of her passing and I remembered that day she climbed into my head and sang this song.
