ELO was one of the first rock bands I had ever seen live. I can remember “Telephone Line” as one of the ‘coolest songs ever.
Of course it sounds a bit lame now but to a then 9 yr old Helen it was pretty rad
So its with a saddened heart that I mention the death of founding cellist Mike Edwards was killed in one of the most freak like accidents Ive ever read of.
A rogue bale of hay tumbled down a hill crashing into his van killing him instantly.
Worse part is British authorities are still looking for family members to alert them. Yet the information is all across the web in music forums.
Our condolences to his friends and family (where the hell are you all?)
