Crackling live performance captures ELO at peak.......2004-11-21
Until the ZOOM TOUR LIVE 2001 album finally comes out, this CD remains perhaps the best overall ELO concert document. LIVE AT WINTERLAND '76 captures ELO as they were nearing their peak artistically and commercially. This nicely mixed, high-quality recording crackles with electricity, in contrast to the disappointing LIVE AT WEMBLEY '78 CD. At WINTERLAND, not every note is hit, and some of the licks miss their targets. There are even a couple of moments of feedback. All of these elements actually enhance this recording, however, giving it an intimacy and immediacy that quickly make the listener forget that this particular concert took place nearly 30 years ago. "Fire On High" is perhaps the penultimate progressive rock instrumental by anyone, anywhere, and it loses none of its excitement and vitality in this live recording. The "Eldorado Suite" captures some of the highlights from the brilliant 1974 ELDORADO album. WINTERLAND performance showcases Kelly Groucutt's outstanding vocals, which nicely compliment Jeff Lynne. Several times here, Kelly steps out of the shadows and takes the lead without missing a beat. There's some interesting between-song banter and instrument tuning between the various ELO mates. I'm glad it's included. The outstanding "10538 Overture/Do Ya" Medley pre-dates the re-recording of "Do Ya" for A NEW WORLD RECORD, and was a favored staple of ELO concerts of that era. All of the lovely bits that you would expect from ELO are here; what's surprising is the intensity and effectiveness of the rockers. "Poker," "Ma-Ma-Ma Belle" and "Roll Over Beethoven" pack a wallop in this live recording, even perhaps beyond their studio counterparts. (Though "Beethoven" is perhaps a bit chaotic.) All ELO fans will be thrilled with this one; fans of great live rock and roll will enjoy it as well. We want more live ELO! (Stay tuned for the ZOOM TOUR album coming out soon.)
ELO - The Heavy Metal Version.......2004-07-21
It was often said that the Beatles couldn't actually perform any of their later stuff live, and the same could be said of ELO, although they gave it one hell of a try. The result is, less cellos and more guitars.
I never knew this band could be so LOUD. OK, so this isn't the best tape of a live performance in existence. Big deal. It's raw, it's loud, there are a few easily spotted goofs in the performance that would not be found anywhere in their studio work, and it's easily as heavy as any Black Sabbath recording, and I can't stop listening to it.
Electric Light Orchestra-'Live At Winterland '76'(Cleopatra).......2004-04-20
Even though I've never been THAT big of an ELO fan,I tend to like their first five lp's the best.Must admit this here archive performance that's been officially released on 'Live At Winterland '76' should give all TRUE ELO fans a head rush they soon won't forget.Jeff Lynne and crew tends to sound nothing short of top notch through out the entire ten track/hour long set.Tunes that sort of took me back a bit were "Poker","NightRider","Eldorado Suite","Evil Woman" and of course their timeless encore of the Chuck Berry cover "Roll Over Beethoven".Superb sound mix.Well worth checking out.
Best live album.......2000-03-07
Jeff Lynne and Company came off just tremendous on this 1976 Live At Winterland disc. This disc has great sound compared to Live at Wembly '78. This is the best live album out there under the E.L.O. Name. Get this one now.
An Intimately Small Concert.......1999-10-16
I attended this concert and stood right by the stage. It was just like being at a private practice session-- Flawed performance, but real! This album brought back memories of meeting up close the Exaulted One, Jeff Lynne, as he performed on a small stage, close to his fans. This albun is a must for true ELO fans

Grab a cello and start duck-walking across your living room.......2006-12-12
This is a really nice live release from a band that I always didn't expect much from live. I was really surprised at how good it is. The first impression is what a good drummer Bev Bevan is and my next is what a good keyboard player Richard Tandy is. I was impressed with Jeff Lynne's guitar playing. This was a band blacklisted for supposed lip synching. The only place I notice that is on some parts that couldn't be performed live ie the beginning of the Eldorado medley,ect. It's very brief and also obvious when it happens. This is a live performance. I wouldn't list any of the players as being heavyweights in their field(Jeff Lynne is no Eric Clapton for example)however this release is a blast and if you like ELO grab it. The only thing that might bug fans is that the strings are under amplified
