Nice gathering of pics and great editing! Todd Rundgren does a fine version of "Bluebird Is Dead", a tip to ELO fans who haven't heard it.

I think he was making fun of ELO with out a doubt. Yeah, he used Jeff Lynn later to produce a track or two but the isn't really the same thing as the entity - ELO(and they are hilarious in concept).
Randy was making fun of ELO and so was the video.

Newman is just too funny. I'm a huge ELO fan, and this could be them except for the voice. Bu Newman is great in his own right. "Falling In Love" is a great tune

I knew before, that this song (1979) is about ELO, but I was not aware, that the intro of this song sounds like the "supplement" of the ELO song "Mr. Blue Sky" (1977)

I just realized that Randy Newman is the unlikely Bill Brasky of songwriting. Stand aside, Dylan.

It's on the album that has the single "It's Money That I Love" - I think it's called "Born Again". It's been a while since I rummaged through my collection of round vinyl things.
