Jeff Lynne IS an icon

Jeff Lynne has received the Q Icon Award from Q Magazine in Britain. He's described as "one of the most unique talents of the last 40 years and as such is a fitting Q Icon."

Despite the poor grammar of the statement - how can there be degrees of uniqueness? - I agree with it wholeheartedly. I'm glad to see Jeff get some recognition for his great body of work as a singer, songwriter, guitarist, producer and genius.
