"This is the second movement (song) from "Concerto For A Rainy Day", which was the third side of Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra's monumental masterpiece "Out Of The Blue" released in 1978! Jeff Lynne wrote this and the rest of the album in a three and a half week burst of creativity while in a chalet in the Swiss Alps. The "Concerto For A Rainy Day" would be Jeff Lynne's final foray into symphonic rock, which also includes his great song "Mr. Blue Sky".

JEAN MICHEL JARRE - ZOOLOOK

"ELO and Man Parrish = EMS Vocoder 2000W MkI (in fact the same vocoder).
Newcleus and Giorgio Moroder = not sure which version it is.
Never Say Never Again = I'm thinking it's the 3000, but not 100% sure.
Jean-Michel Jarre = EMS Vocoder 1000 (don't know if it's MkI or MkII)."
