Five down, five to go! Well, I’ll slip in a bonus before the next country song. 
Meanwhile, before I leave the hotel for the day’s adventures I’ll give you another song on my list of favorites with “talk” in the title. Here’s today’s song.
#6: Sweet Talkin’ Woman - Electric Light Orchestra
I was reading something on Picky Wedia when I got the release date info, and it say this was considered a “disco” song. Whoever thought that had obviously never spent a day in a roller staking rink in 1977. 
This was in the heyday of ELO. They were popular enough to release a double album, then release 42,000 singles from it! 
Seriously, there were five singles from the album, including this one.
And yes, I do like that album. And this song. And this band!
Sweet Talkin’ Woman
Written by Jeff Lynne
Recorded by Electric Light Orchestra
From Out of the Blue, 1978
So sad if that’s the way it’s over:

Hey, we’re rolling along here! Don’t know if you’ll know today’s song, and then there’s country for the next one…
But there’s lots to discuss about the Historical Park.

@LindaOHio — we’re resting up in Fort Wayne this weekend, but I’m glad you’re having a good time.

I know the band and love some of their songs, but never heard this one. When I read the title I had Sweet City Woman on my mid but then remembered you were doing song with talk in the title

“Sweet City Woman” was by the Stampeders and mentioned a banjo…one of the few rock songs that do!

Don’t worry. She’s probably still messing with Jeff Lynne.

Sweet choice...... That sweet talkin woman has some "Strange Magic" doesn't she. Not to be found even when the guy tries the operator on the "Telephone Line" to locate her. It's enough to make him "Turn to Stone" when she's gone. Ok, I'll stop now. A tremendous song from a tremendous album

At least it’s a start. That’s far past where I normally am with you.
