Welcome to the Music Power Trail (MPT for short)
Along Dave Brubeck road, you will find some of my favorite bands and artists. Here there are classical, pop rock, heavy metal, jazz, alternative, and blues musicians.
Some of these bands I grew up listening to as a kid, others I developed a love for them in my adulthood.
Congrats to team HAT for FTF

Electric Light Orchestra (ELO)
One of my favorite bands growing up.
The Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) are an English rock band formed in Birmingham in 1970 by songwriters-multi-instrumentalists Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood with drummer Bev Bevan. Their music is characterised by a fusion of Beatlesque pop, classical arrangements and futuristic iconography. After Wood's departure in 1972, Lynne became the band's sole leader, arranging and producing every album while writing nearly all of their original material. For their initial tenure, Lynne, Bevan and keyboardist Richard Tandy were the group's only consistent members.
