In the US, the album was released as Electric Light Orchestra II. It was also the last album to be released by the band under the Harvest label, the last where the band used the definite article The on its name and introduced their abbreviated name ELO. Background and recordingThe album was originally to be titled The Lost Planet, but that concept was quietly dropped (see below). During the initial recording sessions, Roy Wood left the band and formed Wizzard in early 1972.[2] Although uncredited at the time, Wood performed on two tracks, playing cello and bass on "In Old England Town" and "From the Sun to the World".[2] Classically trained cellists Colin Walker replaced Wood and Wilfred Gibson played on violin. Richard Tandy made his ELO studio debut on this album, playing keyboards; he had earlier performed live with the original lineup alongside Wood, Lynne, drummer Bev Bevan, Gibson and cellist Mike Edwards, playing bass (and in TV appearances with The Move playing guitar). Bassist and vocalist Mike de Albuquerque also made his ELO studio debut on the album. All five pieces are longer than standard rock songs, and feature multi-layered orchestral instruments that create a dense, complex sound.

An edit of "Roll Over Beethoven" was a top 10 hit in Britain and received radio airplay in America also. In 2006 the album was remastered and expanded in the US, with a slightly different running order to the UK 2003 EMI version,[2] with both versions sharing the same Hipgnosis album art for the first time. The British and American sleeves differed, as did the title; in the UK it was released in a gatefold sleeve titled ELO 2 with a painting of a light bulb travelling through space with the wording 'ELO2' on the base of the bulb, while in the US the cover featured a more ornate light bulb against a night sky and was titled Electric Light Orchestra II. For reasons unknown, "Roll Over Beethoven" was slightly edited in length compared with its US counterpart. Track 2 "Momma" was Americanised to "Mama" for the US release. An instrumental version of "In Old England Town", the opening track, became the B-side to the single "Showdown". The album contains the band's longest track, the anti-war song "Kuiama".

The second in the EMI First Light Series released in 2003 to mark the album's 30th anniversary. The first five tracks comprise the original ELO 2 album. After ELO had completed and released ELO 2, the band began recording new material for the third album. Tracks 6-8 on disc two were recorded in February 1973, and feature original Move lead singer Carl Wayne. Tracks 9-12 on disc one were recorded in April 1973 and feature glam rock superstar Marc Bolan, who was also recording at AIR Studios at that time, on double lead guitar on tracks 10–12. The band re-recorded two of these songs for the third album because of ELO's label change in the UK before it was released. Tracks 6-8 on disc one and track 5 on disc two were recorded in June 1973, with track 6 becoming a hit single in the UK. The second disc utilises the original album's working title The Lost Planet, and features various live recordings, outtakes and rarities, in addition to the songs recorded with Carl Wayne. All songs written by Jeff Lynne except where noted. {{Tracklist| headline = Disc one — ELO 2 | title1 = In Old England Town (Boogie No. 2) | length1 = 6:56 | title2 = Momma... | length2 = 7:03 | title3 = Roll Over Beethoven | writer3 = Berry | length3 = 7:03 | title4 = From the Sun to the World (Boogie No. 1) | length4 = 8:20 | title5 = Kuiama | length5 = 11:19 }}{{Tracklist | headline = Bonus tracks | title6 = Showdown | length6 = 4:11 | title7 = In Old England Town (Instrumental) | note7 = B-side of "Showndown" single | length7 = 2:43 | title8 = Baby I Apologize | note8 = session outtake, 1 June 1973 | length8 = 3:42 | title9 = Auntie | note9 = (Ma-Ma-Ma Belle Take 1) | length9 = 1:19 | title10 = Auntie | note10 = (Ma-Ma-Ma Belle Take 2) | length10 = 4:03 | title11 = Mambo | note11 = Dreaming of 4000 Take 1 | length11 = 5:02 | title12 = Everyone's Born to Die | length12 = 4:40 | title13 = Roll Over Beethoven | note13 = Take 1
