Shame the mix in the acoustic session was so poor - piano far too loud, acoustic guitar almost inaudible. No excuse for that given that it was such a simple set-up.
Nice to see him playing a Gibson Dove - I've got one, it sounds great (or it would if someone more talented than me was playing it anyway) and it's quite a rarely-used model.

I watched a few minutes but have it saved. Looking forward to it and the other ELO stuff that was on.
I loved Ringo's comment:
"He always wants to use a click track....a click track?....I'M THE F***ING CLICK TRACK"

Hey, be fair to Ringo ... fancy he was not, but his timing was impeccable!they knew how good a drummer he was
At least until the second beat of bar one ...
"Pardon me while I burst into flames!"
John Lennon was once asked in an interview 'Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?' His reply was "Ringo isn't even the best drummer in The Beatles"they knew how good a drummer he was
Winner winner, chicken dinner.
Amen !
I watched bits of it. The editting on the 1978 concert made me feel ill. Assuming there are no significant vocal overdubs on that though what great live harmonies. The rewrites of history tell us that in 1978 we were all punks and yet ELO were selling out Wembley still with poodle perms, open neck shirts and flares with two members of the band playing silver cellos.
Breeding mammals with insects is my personal bugbear.
What a collection of gear he has, that music room was incredible.
I need a P90 Goldtop.
