The last No. 1 to date by a member of the Beatles topped the Billboard Hot 100 28 years ago today, as George Harrison’s “Got My Mind Set on You” (featuring Ringo Starr on drums) reached No. 1. Co-produced by ELO’s Jeff Lynne, the song sparked the supergroup Traveling Wilburys (Harrison, Lynne, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty); meanwhile, Lynne is back with first new ELO album in 15 years: Alone in the Universe debuted at No. 23 on the Dec. 5 Billboard 200, marking the band’s highest rank on the chart since 1981.
