Jeff Lynne Song Database
|
This site attempts to list and catalog all the known songs ever touched by Jeff
Lynne spanning his entire career (with a few minor exceptions), in order of chronological production
(or as close as can be figured). It is not a discography (there are plenty of other sites for that
kind of information), although one might be able to describe it as a "song-ography" of Jeff Lynne's
career.
If there are any questions, comments, corrections or complaints (!?) about
this database, please feel free to contact me at
elofan@juno.com.
I welcome your feedback. This
is a living document and will be continually updated. Check back periodically
for updates. The latest update was done on July, 2008.

Downloads Click HERE for a downloadable zipped Microsoft Excel version of this list (excluding all the song comments). Key Some of the songs are marked with GREY coloring. On these songs, Jeff Lynne only performed instrumentation, but not involving Jeff Lynne's vocals, song-writing, or producing (and are likely to have little or none of the Jeff Lynne sound). The only exception to this greying out strategy is that I do not grey out the very early Chads, Nightriders, and non-Jeff Lynne written songs from the first Idle Race album - I include those songs for historical reasons since Jeff Lynne had not yet developed into a producer by then.)
