Why was ELO's 2nd album released with two different covers? The US used the dimly lit mountain skyline picture while the UK had the light bulb space ship. I notice that other Europe countries used both.
The light bulb space ship cover is far better.

The UK cover was almost childishly smutty - I always assumed that our 'Mercan cousins had better taste (or that they chickened out of it).

I don't have the original, I have a twinned up version of 1 and 2 combined - what's so smutty about the UK cover then? I'm intrigued.

unomusette, when the cover is fully opened the artwork changes into this:
Anywho, I do prefer this design than the US. US's is horrible.

If it is an arse,(male or female) it's a very spotty one....

Thanks both, fancy me never knowing about that before, I'm such a rubbish fan. I'm surprised it's not more well known though, people are always going on about how great the Eldorado cover is but this slipped right past them......

Actually, it's simply a "artist's impression" of (what for most males in their teens and early 20's is) the centre of the universe.....
