Notes

1st Original Issue on CD. Zoom was recorded primarily by Jeff Lynne alone, with guest musicians that included George Harrison and Ringo Star.  The only other ELO member appearing on the album, Richard Tandy, appears on one track and performed live in promotional concerts.

There are two very different CDs designs, both came in the jewel case with the "First all-new ELO album sticker and the same Cat No. 

 

The RARE black background CD had the band name and album title in yellow text

Notes

Re-issue, remaster in standard jewel case.

The first issue used the wrong booklet rear image (taken from the booklet from the cardboard issue above) so when folded out did not match up with the front image.

Plus the clear CD inlay tray background image was printed upside down and the Cat Number was missing from the tray edges !
