[jarhead12343]

electric light orchestra??
rock or pop i guess

[metalhead]

Prog. Rock I would say. I would say that them Pink Floyd and YES are the biggest Prog. rock names.

[MotleyPriest111]

ELO kicks ass.

[PhilCastro]

Yea! I Love ELO. Out of the blue was an awesome album!

i would classify them as Prog Rock if anything.
Theyre just normal classic rock

[dirty_bird32]

[Figment571]

[thingfish]

[jarhead12343]

Prog. Rock I would say. I would say that them Pink Floyd and YES are the biggest Prog. rock names.

what about rush. they are just as popular as them.

[Tendoza]

I would classify them the same as ELP

PRBWTWA

(Prog rock bands with three word acronyms)

[deputysalty]

Progressive Rock I suppose, but I wouldn't even classify them remotely with Pink Floyd.

[theTolly]

"Official Classification": The absolute ****! Love is like oxygen man!

[clearGHOST]

I would say classic rock, probably not progressive.

[Bullseye]

"Official Classification": The absolute ****! Love is like oxygen man!

Love is Like Oxygen is actually by Sweet (of Ballroom Blitz fame), not ELO, but kicks *ss in that, uh, same Progressive way!

[diesel]

i love ELO, EVIL WOMAN IS A GOOD SONG:D

[Nilsen31]

Throw ELO in the monster that is "Classic Rock"

[mhg420]

Just call ELO great.

[jordanbeard]

in general, classic rock
more specifically, prog-pop

[masterx1918]

Since I don't consider classic rock a real genre of music, I find ELO to be progressive rock. Probably symphonic prog rock to be exact.
