Jeff is a Music God but at the same time, he is so humble, kind and funny. Can't wait to see him on Tour again...

I just realized that, after being an ELO/Jeff Lynne fan for over 40 years, I’d never heard his speaking voice. Seems like a fun guy!

[DenoKeller]

Jeff Lynne seems to be a great guy and has a great sense of humor and of course a awesome musical artist !

"Bollocks to that, I'm singing 'BRUCE!' as well.." LOLZ.

I love the song Evil Woman a lot. I've had a crush on Jeff Lynn forever.

In addition to his musical talent from what I've read and seen of him on interviews, he's probably one of the nicest and most humble people in the classic rock industry. Yes personality does count 😄❤ If there was an award for the most congenial celebrities, I would give one to Jeff Lynne.

The best overall Musician ever and a top 3 Producer. Jeff Lynne is incredible.

[rodneygarcia]

Out Of The Blue, I consider one of the greatest albums ever recorded. Beautiful music.

[flemingcourt]

Thank You Jeff for that one last N.A. tour. You and The Band were fabulous. Give a nod to the people that built the Spaceship backdrop! Fan-Bloody-Tastic!

[taratova]

What a great entertaining guy he is, singing and playing.. All around Great Guy.

[rennyp]

Jeff is the greatest!! I especially like the clarification of “ Grooose”. I knew that was what it said, but my brother was unsure, so I was able to send him this clip. I also bought a tee shirt for him with grooose on the front. Wonder how many people catch on when he wears it in public. 😂😂

[TONYSESLCAFE]

What a very cool real humble #1 musician.

[unclemarksdiyauto]

Great stories. Jeff is a funny guy to boot!

[jmack]

Wow! Incredible guy. Would be a joy to work with!. Now, what about Telephone Line please!

Jeff Lynne's ELO is one of the very, very few bands sounding better live than on their records. They are this good. In the Summer of 2019, Forbes Magazine called Jeff Lynne's ELO "The Best Live Classic Rock Band In The World Still Touring". After seeing their shows in 2016, 2018 and 2019, I totally agree. This is amazing Jeff Lynne, Paul, Ringo and George Harrison became great friends and produced fantastic music together with also other Music Legends. Jeff Lynne's ELO will probably Tour with Dhany Harrison in 2022.
