The record was originally going to be a double album, but this plan was thwarted by Jet's distributor, CBS Records, claiming that producing a double vinyl album would be too expensive; as a result, leader Jeff Lynne would have to reduce it to a single album. It was the last ELO album with bass guitarist Kelly Groucutt, conductor Louis Clark and real stringed instruments, and the last ELO album to be released on the Jet label. Secret Messages, as it's title suggests, is littered with hidden messages in the form of back-masking, some obvious and others less so. This was Jeff Lynne's second tongue-in-cheek response to allegations of hidden Satanic messages in earlier Electric Light Orchestra LPs by Christian fundamentalists, which led up to American congressional hearings in the early 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Secret Messages (Album Version) - 4:44\u003cbr\u003e2 Loser Gone Wild (Album Version) - 5:27\u003cbr\u003e3 Bluebird (Album Version) - 4:13\u003cbr\u003e4 Take Me on and on - 4:58\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Stranger (Album Version) - 4:27\u003cbr\u003e2 No Way Out (Album Version) - 3:26\u003cbr\u003e3 Letter from Spain - 2:51\u003cbr\u003e4 Danger Ahead (Album Version) - 3:52\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 3 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Four Little Diamonds (Album Version) - 4:05\u003cbr\u003e2 Train of Gold - 4:21\u003cbr\u003e3 Endless Lies (Album Version) - 3:25\u003cbr\u003e4 Buildings Have Eyes (Album Version) - 3:55\u003cbr\u003e5 Rock 'N' Roll Is King - 3:09\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 4 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Mandalay (Album Version) - 5:19\u003cbr\u003e2 Time After Time (Album Version) - 4:01\u003cbr\u003e3 After All (Shorter Version) - 0:39\u003cbr\u003e4 Hello My Old Friend - 8:31\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54453672083785,"sku":"190758376912","price":6.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/echoarchiv.com\/products\/electric-light-orchestra-secret-messages-lp","provider":"Echo Archive Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
