I just have to say my piece here, no idea what the purpose of debate is, I won't change anybody's mind and nobody will change mine.

And the rest of the story (the point of him telling the story) was that after he had brought Tony's A Customs to the studio instead of his K's, and Tony flipped out, Tony came up to him later and apologized and thanked him for bringing new ones instead of his old ones because it would force him to branch out and play differently.
A Tony apologist I am not, but just wanted to set the record straight.

Loved Bev Bevan's sound. So 70s, and a little touch of swing and shuffle. Definitely influenced by Ringo. I view them as one of the top-tier drumming gigs of all time.
It's funny, those songs were on the radio constantly when I was a kid, and today, they'd never ever get on at all. ELO wouldn't exist.
However...ahem.
