I didn’t even know Jeff Lynne was touring again. He’s one of my favorites. There is no other sound like it. I like seeing all the real string players. But Bev Bevan is missing. The keyboard player I think is original.
I saw footage of a show they did in London recently (by the way they sound fantastic!) They gave a shout-out to Bev Bevan, who apparently is ill and not doing all that well.
