How ‘Evil Woman’ Became an ELO Classic

Originally launched in 1975, “Evil Woman” turned one of ELO’s signature hits. The observe, penned by frontman Jeff Lynne, was one of the final songs written for his or her fifth album, Face the Music.

“I wrote this in a matter of minutes,” Lynne admitted to Rolling Stone in 2016. “The rest of the album was done. I listened to it and thought, ‘There’s not a good single.’ So I sent the band out to a game of football and made up ‘Evil Woman’ on the spot. The first three chords came right to me. It was the quickest thing I’d ever done. We kept it slick and cool, kind of like an R&B song. It was kind of a posh one for me, with all the big piano solos and the string arrangement. It was inspired by a certain woman, but I can’t say who. She’s appeared a few times in my songs.”

“Evil Woman” has remained a mainstay in ELO’s set lists, recurrently showing early of their live shows. Jeff Lynne’s ELO – because the band has been referred to as since 2014 – is at present out on a farewell tour, with a closing present scheduled for Oct. 26 in Los Angeles.
