"Can't Get It Out of My Head" is a song written by #JeffLynne and originally recorded by #ElectricLightOrchestra (also known as ELO). First released on the band's fourth album Eldorado in September 1974, the song is the second track on the album and follows "#EldoradoOverture". The song was released in November the same year as a single. The song became the band's first top 10 single in the #UnitedStates, reaching number 9.

The duo wrote and recorded the single in two days, making it the first song completed for Full Moon Fever.

Today’s listening is ‘Armchair Theatre’, the 1990 album by Jeff Lynne.

In particular I’ve been listening to the 2013 reissue, which is on appropriately blue vinyl!

So, is this a missing ELO album (Richard Tandy is on it), or is it the fabled missing Traveling Wilburys album Volume 2 (both Otis and Nelson Wilbury are on it)?

Well, it sounds like a mixture of both and it is mostly as laid-back as the image of Jeff sitting in an armchair on the front cover might suggest!
