Se ha ido KELLY GROUCUTT

ELO member Groucutt dies, aged 63

Kelly Groucutt played with ELO between 1974 and 1983
Kelly Groucutt, the bass player in the rock band Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), has died aged 63.
He suffered a heart attack on Wednesday night and was taken to Worcestershire Royal Hospital but did not regain consciousness and died on Thursday.
Groucutt, who also sang on the Birmingham band's records, joined the group in 1974 and left in 1983.
His friend Mike Sheridan, of Mike Sheridan and The Nightriders, said he was "gob smacked" by the news.
He added: "When I heard the news this afternoon I just couldn't believe it. He seemed to be such a fit guy."
Groucutt played with The Sight and Sound before joining ELO and was an influential figure in the Brum Beat scene of the 1960s.

Proximo Concierto de The Orchestra, 3 de junio 2008 sala LUZ DE GAS, Barcelona

La sala Luz de Gas de Barcelona albergará la actuación de la Electric Light Orchestra Part. II, el próximo 3 de junio.
La deserción de Jeff Lynne en 1986, cofundador e ideólogo de la Electric Light Orchestra, para dedicarse a tareas de producción, además de sus posteriores negativas a reactivar el grupo con los miembros originales, propició la aparición de ELO Part II, formada por Mik Kaminski (violín), Kelly Groucutt (bajo y voz), Louis Clark (teclados) y Bev Bevan (batería), a quienes se han ido sumando Eric Troyer (voz y teclados) y Phil Bates (guitarra y voz). El último cambio se ha registrado en la batería ya que Gordon Townsend sustituirá al veterano Bevan en su actuación en Barcelona.Fundados en el ya lejano 1971 Electric Light Orchestra surgió en el panorama rockero como un grupo algo atípico, incluyendo en sus composiciones grandilocuentes orquestaciones. Durante la década de los setenta consiguió un importante reconocimiento con grabaciones como, A New World Record, Out Of The Blue y Face The Music. Canciones como Evil Woman, Last Train To London o Don’t Bring Me Down, han quedado para siempre en la memoria colectiva de los aficionados. Temas que sus seguidores incondicionales podrán escuchar en directo en la sala Luz de Gas de Barcelona, el próximo día martes 3 de junio a partir de las 21:00. El precio de las entradas es de 36 euros anticipada y 40 en taquilla.

-------
THANKS FOR YOUR MESSAGEST hanks for all the kind words and messages I have received since my announcement that I was rejoining Mik, Kelly, Lou and Eric. I will do my best to keep everyone updated about future concerts. The gigs page has all the information. There are a few websites for specific information on Orchestra, see Links for details. I will pass on any news as it comes in.
-------
It's like Friends Reunited in here !!!



The first of the National press ads for the forthcoming Orchestra UK tour has appeared In the Sunday Mirror. I am really looking forward to this tour and meeting up with many of you who I havent seen for a while. It's an exciting time ahead and I think we are all very much awaiting the start of the tour with relish.


For those who have seen me either solo or with Bev Bevans Move, Brum Rocks or The Eleanor Rigby Experience, but have not as yet seen The Orchestra, then I think you may well be interested in coming along to the show when we are near to you. The band is currently working on a new set which encompasses 30 years of ELO, ELO Part2 and Orchestra material. Possibly the most comprehensive set list ever performed by the band or any of its variants.
