A New World Record is arguably not all new. Its version of “Do Ya,” the Move favorite, evidences little variation from the original, and throughout this album, Electric Light Orchestra eschews tampering with the formula that fueled its previous albums, Face the Music and Eldorado. That’s understandable, though. Combining lush orchestral effects and hard-rock beats with breathtaking production effects and knockout hooks, its formula is one of rock’s most potent. Best cut: “Tightrope.”
The album is available here.
