Additional Information

Comments 2011 box set containing all of the group's studio albums 1971-86. All eleven albums, in vinyl replica sleeves, are stacked in a big fold-out cardboard box. A booklet with track listings and information is also included. All albums are the remastered versions with bonus tracks; the vinyl replica design does not indicate that, and the correct track listings can therefore only be found in the booklet.

Track Duration of Title 2-3 (Roll over Beethoven) is incorrect. There exists a 8:10 version on some versions of ELO II & on the 3 disc compilation 'Afterglow', but on this release the title's duration is only 7:04.
