NOTES:
In commercial disgrace when they split in 1986 and almost unnoticed when leader Jeff Lynne re-activated the name in 2001, absence has worked wonders for Electric Light Orchestra. Despite selling more than 50 million records ELO were once unfathomably regarded as irredeemably passé, but finally Lynne’s poetic grandeur has been deservedly rehabilitated.

Last night, Lynne, backed by the BBC Concert Orchestra, ELO keyboardist Richard Tandy and most of Take That’s touring band, took flight. This time, they were received less as a guilty pleasure, more as returning heroes by 50,000 unashamed devotees including Adrian Edmondson, Jennifer Saunders, Harry Hill, Noel Fielding, Cat Deeley and Gaby Roslin.

Hiding beneath his sunglasses, big hair and small beard (imagine a Midlands version of Chas of Chas & Dave), Lynne looks as he ever did. But, as looks likely after his parting shot that “this was the best fun we’ve ever had”, more dates beckon, at the age of 66 it’s probably his last chance to tour properly.

Having dedicated most of the 21st century to recording, Lynne has always been more studio bunny than live lion and in their heyday, Electric Light Orchestra disguised lack of charisma with lavish stage sets. Last night though, buoyed by the crowd’s goodwill and the ensemble’s technical proficiency, the real spectacle was the immenseness of the super-warm, technically precise music with a dreamer’s lyrical bent.

For all Lynne’s love of Fifties rock’n’roll, the plodding 10538 Overture and Roll Over Beethoven were reminders he never was a convincing rocker. No matter, Handle With Care (the biggest hit by The Traveling Wilburys, Lynne’s other band) was dedicated to fallen Wilburys George Harrison and Roy Orbison and felt right, but towering versions of Livin’ Thing, Strange Magic, Mr Blue Sky (it sounded just fine in the dark) and a headspinning Sweet Talkin’ Woman hammered home Lynne’s claims for greatness again and again. How could anyone have possibly regarded these majestic heart-tuggers as naff?

Before then, Paloma Faith was a cheeky chappess in maroon; Billy Ocean’s white dreadlocks matched his suit, and while Blondie will have had better ideas than performing in front of footage of their vintage selves, the percussive thunder of Union City Blue has grown in majesty over the decades, as has Debbie Harry’s voice.
