Sadly, the Salsoul Orchestra's third album does not live up to its fanciful title. Magic Journey forsakes the consistent feel of the group's past albums in favor of an odd assemblage of material that never comfortably coheres. In fact, it goes all over the map -- from soul ("Runaway") to traditional tunes ("Guantanamera") to pure orchestral instrumentals ("Theme From Montreal Olympics, 1976"). The strangest inclusion is a cover of "Short Shorts" that forsakes disco entirely for a '50s nostalgia feel and goofily rewrites the lyrics to mention the members of the band. Another problem with Magic Journey is that it allows the "orchestral" to overpower the "soul" in their orchestral soul sound: "Theme From Montreal Olympics, 1976" is a straight orchestral instrumental that is lacking in any kind of R&B content while "Journey to Phoebus" and "Alpha Centuri" feel like outtakes from a science fiction film score instead of the dancefloor material the Salsoul Orchestra is known for. Despite these problems, Magic Journey does have its moments: "Getaway" is a high-octane instrumental retooling of the Earth, Wind & Fire classic and "Magic Bird of Fire" transforms musical themes from Stravinsky's Firebird Suite into a thrilling and hard-grooving slice of orchestral soul that pulsates with frantic percussion and swirling strings. The Salsoul Orchestra also manages to transform the Latin standard "Guantanamera" into a credible mid-tempo dance track layered with a classy string arrangement. Despite these occasional bright spots, Magic Journey is too inconsistent in both the quality of its material and its danceable content to qualify as a solid disco outing. Completists may want to add it to their collection but the casual listener would be better off sampling Magic Journey's highlights on the group's Anthology retrospective. © Donald A. Guarisco /TiVo

Richard Tandy, longtime Electric Light Orchestra keyboardist, dies at 76

magic journey salsoul orchestra

Richard Tandy, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017 as Electric Light Orchestra 's longtime keyboardist, has died. He was 76.

The British rock band's founder, Jeff Lynne, shared Tandy's passing on social media Thursday.

"It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of my long-time collaborator and dear friend Richard Tandy. He was a remarkable musician & friend and I’ll cherish the lifetime of memories we had together," Lynne wrote in an Instagram post .

Lynne also included several photos and a video of the two from over the years.

A cause of death was not revealed.

Remembering those we lost: Celebrity Deaths 2024

When Lynne revived the group as Jeff Lynne’s ELO in 2014 nearly 30 years after they disbanded in 1986, Tandy was one of the only prior members to return.

The following year, in 2015, Lynne and Tandy performed with Ed Sheeran at the 57th Grammy Awards, with stars in the audience including Paul McCartney singing and dancing along as they played "Evil Woman" and "Mr Blue Sky."

ELO was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017 alongside Joan Baez, Pearl Jam, Tupac Shakur, Yes, Journey and Nile Rodgers. During the ceremony, Lynne took to the stage to honor Chuck Berry with a performance of "Roll Over Beethoven."

In 2021, ELO celebrated 50 years since Lynne, drummer Bevan and Roy Wood (who exited in 1972) formed the band in Birmingham, England.

In March, the band – known for hits such as "Strange Magic" and "Don't Bring Me Down" – announced its final tour , The Over and Out Tour, would be performing across North America from August through October.
