Originally, Roy Wood's change of name and direction for his band The Move; the merging of a light orchestra with a hard rock band. The proof-of-concept was early hits like "Roll Over Beethoven". Wood left to form more diversified projects, like Wizzard. ELO became Jeff Lynne's band, and made some of the more listenable pop of the 70's. Now Lynne is on the Rock Senior Tour with The Traveling Wilburys (ELO II wheezes on without him), and is a Big Name Producer.
