3 stars Ok. I'm gonna have to admit it. I actually enjoy much of this album. Yeah, it's synth-pop for the most part and somewhat dated, but dang-it-all I still listen to it every now and then. Only a few poor tracks like "Bluebird" and "Letter from Spain" dog it down and stop the nice flow it has. Jeff Lynne is a pop genius and knows how to craft a pop tune and how to place songs on an album so it flows well. Electric Light Orchestra is not really an orchestra on SECRET MESSAGES like earlier albums such as ELO II and ON THE THIRD DAY, but it is still recognizable as an ELO and Jeff Lynne album.
