WARNING!!

There may be some ELO fans out there and I feel it my duty to warn you.

There is an 'official' fan site called FACE THE MUSIC. The site looks great and is full of info but I would reccomend you not try to buy any products form this site.

I tried to purchase 3 remastered cd's and exclusive photo's and paid by PayPal. 3 month later I was still waiting for the cd's. I must have sent 12 emails to the site and the owner asking for updates on delivery and received 1 reply in the first week then nothing - ignored totally.

The lack of communication was appaling and in the end I had to ask pay pal to intervene and get my money back. Which they did but what a frustrating 3 months I had.

Thanks

Just goes to show how misleading the word "official" can be.

Earlier this year, before the issue of the remastered Out Of The Blue, the record company's site for ELO http://www.elomusic.com/ had been dormant for some time, and any news regarding the band and upcoming releases could only be found on this "official" site, www.ftmusic.com. Certainly gave the impression it was official. I had been tempted to get the "exclusive" tribute CD Lynne Me Your Ears, but there were more pressing calls on my wallet. It was still on my Wanted list, but I might now decide it's not worth the possible hassle.

Exactly, Rocket. I could have got the cd's from high street shops at £2.00 extra but it was the photo collection that I was interested in also.

Avoid.
