- Released in 2012, 'Mr. Blue Sky: The Very Best of Electric Light Orchestra' marks a retrospective compilation that celebrates the band's extensive catalog. By this point, ELO had already established themselves as pioneers of symphonic rock since their formation in 1970, with numerous hits solidifying their legacy. This album arrives after the band’s commercial peak in the late 1970s and early 1980s, serving both as a nostalgia trip for longtime fans and an introduction for new listeners.
