Electric Light Orchestra - Roll Over Beethoven - Live - 1974 - Hamburg - HD

A fabulous live early performance of Roll Over Beethoven in 1974 by ELO.
Took place on 4th Oct 1974 at Studio Hamburg in Germany, without an audience, although there is some clapping at the end - I think it was from people working in the studio.
Featured a magical line up, including two members who are no longer with us - Hugh McDowell and Mike Edwards, both celloists here.
Hugh died of cancer in 2018 aged 65, and Mike of a freak road accident in 2010, aged just 62.
Everyone else is still happily among us, and into their 7th decade.

The complete line up here was:

Jeff Lynne - vocals, guitar
Bev Bevan - drums
Richard Tandy - keyboards
Mike de Albuquerque - bass, backing vocals
Mik Kaminski - violin
Hugh McDowell - cello
Mike Edwards - cello

Just a wonderful show, and may feature some more at some stage.

Resolution increased to HD
