E-L-O…the Electric Light Orchestra was famous for their distinctive symphonic rock- full of lush strings, and classical music
styled arrangements with rock n’ roll dynamic.   Since the group’s formation in 1970, ELO evolved into a perennial powerhouse- releasing 4 Gold or Platinum selling LPs, and 15 Top-40 hits around the globe over a ten year period.

But.. after 7 studio albums, ELO’s leader & front man, Jeff Lynne, grew tired of the the sound.  It was time for ELO to mix it up to avoid the pratfalls of predictability    In 1979, Lynne was steadfastly focused at the Musicland Studios in Munich, Germany.
He was in the homeward stretch of completing ELO’s 8th LP, Discovery, and he wanted one more song to round out the record.

Lynne felt the album didn’t have enough “loud” rockers.

In Lynne’s words, what he sought was a “great big galloping ball of distortion", with NO strings attached...so to speak.

What he came up with was the track that became the biggest hit in America for ELO… a song about an uppity woman who thinks she’s too good for the guy she’s with, entitled..  “Don’t Bring Me Down.”  Around 1965, Jeff Lynne acquired his first piece of studio recording equipment- which was a Bang & Olufsen 'Beocord 2000 De Luxe' stereo reel-to-reel tape deck.
