Your choice...

ELO on TOTP 1973

Wednesday is when I start work on next week’s themes. I like to get a good balance across the week with a mix of genre based themes, single subject ones, themes based on a particular year and, from time to time, celebrations of individual artists.

Julie has e-mailed to suggest ELO might be a suitable subject for the latter. “They did become unfashionable for while but their music has stood the test of time” she says.

Formed as an offshoot of The Move, Electric Light Orchestra certainly have the back catalogue for an entertaining show, and if it means I get to play ‘Horace Wimp’ again then I am happy.

You should choose though. Here’s a list of some of the most requested artists that we have yet to cover for a Get It On theme. Get posting below and let me know which one of these acts deserves their own 'Get It On' next week...

A:ELO
B:The Proclaimers
C:Rod Stewart
D:Sparks
E:Echo & The Bunnymen
