The ELO EP
The ELO EP is the first and only extended play (EP) from Electric Light Orchestra and was their final release of 1978. It was released in the UK and Ireland only to promote the three-LP box set Three Light Years which contained three earlier albums in their catalogue.[1] "Can't Get It Out of My Head" was the lead-off track and had originally appeared on the band's fourth album Eldorado. It thus finally became a hit in their homeland, nearly four years after it had charted in the US. The other three tracks had already been UK hit singles.
