Only know 'Time'. Not bad at all, very good meliodic pop. But I prefer Lynn's work on albums like George Harrison (Cloud Nine, 1987), Roy Orbison (Mystery Girl, 1989 and King Of Hearts, 1992), Tom Petty (Full Moon Fever, 1989 and Into The Great Wide Open, 1991).
ELO had some great cover art, though!

Well, it depends on how much you like the band! In my book the only record not worth buying is the 1983 disaster Secret Messages which truly blows. All the others contain some awesome stuff not found on compilations and sometimes better then the well known hits.

Without a doubt:

Eldorado
New World Record
Face the Music
Out of the Blue
On the Third Day

Also like Time, but this was the beginning of their downfall - Lynne dropped the gutty cello sound for keyboards.
