ELO - Discovery (MASTERSOUND GOLD ZK 64646)

This is the Mastersound Gold Collectors Edition of this classic album. Enjoy.

Discovery was the band's first number 1 album in the UK, entering the chart
at that position and staying there for five weeks. The album contained five
hit songs in "Shine a Little Love", "Don't Bring Me Down",
"Last Train to London", "Confusion" and "The Diary of Horace Wimp" many of
which were heavily influenced by disco (in fact, Richard Tandy came up with
its well known nickname, Disco Very). "Don't Bring Me Down" would become
one of their only two top three hits in the UK throughout their career
("Xanadú" will be number One in 1980) and also their highest-charting US
single at number 4. "The Diary of Horace Wimp" was also a hit single in
the UK, not patterned after the disco sound; instead it was closer in its
Beatlesque style to the band's earlier hit "Mr. Blue Sky" The album itself
was the first ever to generate four top-ten singles
(one of which was a Double A-side) from a single LP in the UK and was
eventually certified 2x platinum by the RIAA in 1997.
