NEW LP
New sealed copy. 2018 reissue.
Released in 1976, A New World Record is the sixth studio album from Electric Light Orchestra and marks a turning point in their sound. The album embraced a more focused pop approach and solidified ELO’s place in both the UK and international charts. Produced at Musicland Studios in Munich, it introduced the now-iconic ELO logo by Kosh, which would go on to feature on most of their later releases.
The album became ELO’s first top ten UK album and achieved multi-platinum status in both the US and UK, selling five million copies worldwide within its first year. Four singles from the album found chart success: “Livin' Thing,” the transatlantic hit “Telephone Line,” the UK top ten track “Rockaria!” and “Do Ya,” a cover of The Move’s 1972 single.
