An Excellent Compilation
I absolutely love this this double-CD compilation of E.L.O.'s best tracks released in the U.S. and not released in the U.S. This 38-track collection has all of the best E.L.O. songs from my pre-teen to teen years. So many tracks didn't even hit or were released on the Billboard's Top 100 Chart., so there are a lot of great gems that I newly discovered. I've got this on replay in my car as that's the only CD player I have. LIGHT YEARS: THE BEST OF E.L.O. is an excellent compilation.

Go for it!
Reviews for music are tilted toward more stars than fewer; already fans are the folks buying them so you can expect them to harbor a strong liking going in. I mention this because I was not a fan of ELO going in and my review is from someone with a fresh perspective.I like what I hear on these two CDs. It's clear ELO is an acquired taste and I have a ways to go but I see possibilities. What I do admire is that the recordings are technology-wise quite good, and the musical skill of the group is excellent!From what I've read of the group, their history of recordings, this is probably the only (double) album you'll ever need. I don't see buying any more.

A force of nature
After listening to and watching a YouTube video of ELO’s all over the world, got me really hooked into wanting their CD. I looked at a few and came across this one which was not a US release. After Reading the review from one person with a lengthy description of why he liked this UK double album version, I took the plunge.This has resparked my love of ELO and remember how much I enjoyed all that Orchestra Within their music. There are some bonus songs that I did not recognize. To which we’re more released in the UK. They have grown on me and now love every song on this light years, the very best of ELO double CD.. If you were a ELO fan, this is a must to have in your collection if you’re just coming into the music of ELO, I highly recommend you have this CD you will not be disappointed.
