I was a bit late in answering the question directed to me. I have an image of Mike Edwards as my profile picture, to honour him and that lineup, which I think is way underrated.

Don't be too disheartened by Timeblue's prodding, Helmut. If memory serves, there were several times when he (or she) displayed ignorance in regards to ELO... so this ends up being a case of the pot calling the kettle black in the end. After all, virtually no one that posts here is a walking, talking ELO encyclopedia, except for ShardEnder... and even then the knowledge base apparently revolves around the Secret Messages era.

Thanks for your supportive message, Rob. I'm a big fan of ELO's music but I'm not obsessed with being an ELO encyclopedia and have no problems with ignoring some facts; I was just expecting to get the answer without being grabbed by the nose and being paraded around the block naked. Oh, and I don't doubt Timeblue doesn't know everything ELO-related either.
Now, I wonder what ShardEnder has to say about that...

Ha! That would be interesting. I'm just trying to catch up on around a week's worth of messages without consciously throwing any member under the bus.
... and are you sure you were naked? What I had pictured in my mind was you being grabbed by the nose and being paraded around the block wearing nothing but Lion King underwear and a red hat with a propeller on it.

I'm pretty sure Richard wouldn't mind not being featured in the picture, besides Jeff Lynne IS ELO and all the other members are arguably just backing Jeff up.

It's a non issue since the picture has been replaced, anyway. I'd be happy to make another banner than features (at least) the core members, and not just Mr. Lynne if the moderators are interested.

... you haven't seen one in real life, have you?
I once dreamt of riding a unicorn that would only continue on a journey if fed Ritz crackers... those were the days.

Hey,I wasn't being at all facetious thank you...I never intend to mock someone just because their knowledge might be less than mine.if I have offended Helmut then I apologize as it's not in my nature to mock, so are you now satisfied Rob? ps. The last time I looked,I was a 'he'.........
