    ELO Week 5/9 (Mixtape 22)

    This is a "symphony" of four songs, if you will, entitled Concerto for a Rainy Day from ELO's seventh album Out of the Blue.

    It's comprised of Standing in the Rain, Big Wheels, Summer and Lightning, and Mr. Blue Sky.

    I won't blame you if you don't have time to listen to all 18 or so minutes of this.

    But if you do...

    It's spectacular.

    Pics from my hike on 5/31/24 at Dolan Lake, Hamilton County, Illinois

    (please set the order of the photos from a-z on the album, as except for the last few, that's the exact order I took them in.)
    That's the link to the photo album, because I was having trouble uploading them to Fimfic.

    ELO Week 3/9 (Mixtape 20)

    Ah, yes we come to what I deem to be my "favorite" (hard air quotes there) ELO song.

    I mean, there's probably others I like just as much (and I truly enjoy all of their songs) but there's just something special about this one.
    It also helps that this song reminds me greatly of Past Sins, but that's a story for another day.

    ELO Week 2/9 (Mixtape 19)

    ELO's fourth album is called Eldorado.
    Best Fimfiction mod.

    It's structured so that a lot of songs flow together without any silence between tracks, which is wonderful.

    This isn't my favorite song (Well, a song and its intro song, similar to Sirius/Eye in the Sky), but I would be remiss if I didn't include it.

Tape Deck's Mixtape: Track 5 · 1:13pm May 16th

The Beatles.
A band who literally needs no introduction whatsoever.
I used to be one of those folks who disliked them simply because of their massive popularity.
What an outrageous fool I was.:facehoof:

Nowhere Man by the Beatles, from the 1965 album Rubber Soul.

This was excellent. I was never big on The Beatles either, but this was legitimately great.

Nowhere Man reached #3 on the Hot 100 in 1966. Great song, very John Lennon.

Ya see what I've done?
(And yes, great song.)
