Excellent producer as well - worked on some great albums in that capacity. Saw him in Hyde Park and was fab (!) atvthe Concert for George - The most emotional concert I have attended (and bearing in mind I was at the Concert for New York after 9/11, that says it all)
Bloody nice bloke too!
Ps. Only one 'L' in Traveling as they went with American spelling as it was 3-2 in their favour !

Not really - but an interesting fact and if anyone ever wondered why it's spelt that way, they did discuss it and agreed that way!
But let's not fall out !! ... totally agree that he is a legend.

The Move produced two of the best musicians in Jeff and Roy Wood, who I also rate very highly

Love that album and amazing that he also produced (or co) so many others around that time ... Roy Orbison Mystery Girl, George Harrison Cloud Nine , Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever, Ringo's Time Takes Time and of course Beatles Antholgy songs and some of Paul's Flamkng Pie plus his work as Otis Wilbury..a very productive few years !

Awful producer, sound-wise, after Out Of The Blue. For all the talent on the Traveling Wilburys records, they sound foul. SYRUPY*
But for the Move and early ELO, he has my respect. * Wig or transplant?

What Pikey said. Better musician than producer imho, although he does have a distinctive sound I suppose.

Not for me, thanks.
I love plenty of music from the 60s and 70s, but never anything he was involved in. Nothing personal, just not my thing.

Thought I may have been harsh. Just listened to ELO "Rock and Roll Is King". Cuntasaurus!! Jive Bunny would be embarrassed by that. Jesus wept.
As for what he did to poor George Harrison. Fucking hell.
