Electric Light Orchestra – Balance Of Power The Japanese pressing of Balance Of Power (catalog number 28AP 3153) was released in March 1986 by CBS/Sony. This album is the eleventh and final studio album by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) before the band’s temporary dissolution in the late 1980s. Japanese LP editions from this era are highly regarded for their excellent pressing quality, quiet vinyl surfaces, and detailed packaging, often including Japanese lyric inserts and an obi strip. Released in 1986, Balance Of Power reflects the strong influence of mid-1980s electronic and synth-driven production. Band leader Jeff Lynne streamlined the sound, focusing more on pop-oriented songwriting and synthesizers rather than the orchestral arrangements that had defined earlier ELO releases. The album marked the end of the original ELO era and showcased a polished, modern sound aligned with the musical trends of the time. Band / Personnel Jeff Lynne – vocals, guitars, keyboards, production Richard Tandy – keyboards Additional session musicians contributed to the recording Collector’s Highlight A clean and well-produced Japanese pressing of ELO’s final studio album of the classic era, capturing the band’s transition into polished 1980s synth-pop with audiophile-quality vinyl.
