Mr. Blue Sky: The Story of Jeff Lynne & ELO
A documentary that delves into who Jeff Lynne is and how he has had such a profound musical impact on our world. The story is told by the British artist himself, as well as Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Olivia and Dhani Harrison, Barbara Orbison, and Eric Idle. The film exposes Lynne as a true musician whose greatest instrument is the recording studio. This is an intimate account of a great British pop classicist who has plowed a unique furrow since starting out on the Birmingham Beat scene in the early 1960s, moving from the Idle Race to the multi-million selling ELO in the 1970s, and then as a key member of the Traveling Wilburys with Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison, and George Harrison.
