Electric Light Orchestra Evil Woman (Jeff Lynne Without Sunglasses)

Evil Woman is performed by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) in 1975. Written by lead vocalist Jeff Lynne, the song was first released on the band’s fifth album, Face the Music. When released as a single in late 1975, the song became ELO’s first worldwide hit. According to Lynne, this song was the quickest he had ever written, in thirty minutes, originally as ’filler’ for the group’s Face the Music album. The song placed in the top 10 on both sides of the Atlantic in early 1976. The song became a hit again in the UK in 1978 when it was featured on The ELO EP. The lyric “There’s a hole in my head where the rain comes in“ in the song is a tribute to The Beatles’ song “Fixing a Hole“. ELO’s principal band member lineup is Jeff Lynne — lead and backing vocals, guitars, Bev Bevan — drums, percussion, backing vocals, Richard Tandy — piano, keyboards, and Kelly Groucutt - bass and backing vocals.
