This was the last real album recorded by ELO, and don't let Bev Bevan - who now fronts ELO Part II - tell you otherwise. This modest album, as aptly described in the liner notes of the Afterglow box set four years later, doesn't sound a whole lot like what you'd come to expect from ELO. It is as different from the mid-70s ELO signature as the first album was, but moves steadily into the 80s. The great vocal harmonies are still there, but the orchestra is not (unless emulated by keyboards), and the sound just doesn't seem as full as it once did. The songs aren't bad, though - Without Someone, Is It Alright and Calling America sticking out as my favorites and the most authentically ELO-ish - but perhaps this should have been Jeff Lynne's first solo album instead of the last ELO album.
