My ability to write succinct yet detailed song descriptions has improved since June. The section on A New World Record (completed in June) vs the albums you mentioned - where I added the song-by-song analysis just before this live-stream - bears that out.

It's so cool that Time is now recognized as an 80s classic.
Secret Messages should be as well.
Out of the Blue is a masterpiece. Thanks for the song analysis and detailed description of the album art.
It's got six of their best songs: "Turn to Stone", "Birmingham Blues", "Sweet Talking Woman", "The Whale", "Mr. Blue Sky", and "On the Border".
Another awesome profile. I especially enjoyed the sections on Out of the Blue through Time.

...Chicago, Renaissance, Electric Light Orchestra... this series is going well.
The original ELO with Wood is the best.
It's unique but I love albums like Eldorado, Face the Music, Out of the Blue, and Time just as much, each in their own way.
No Answer has some brilliant moments and others where they over-stretched themselves. I like some of The Move's stuff and ELO's mid-period better.
