Looking On, for all practices and purposes is really the first ELO album without actually being an ELO album. Music is written by all the original players including Bev Bevan who rarely writes much less sings. Richard Tandy is already involved in some capacity. Roy Wood begins moving away from "pop sensibilities" and begins to experiment with new instruments as he hinted on Shazam.
Looking On sounds almost like "No Answer" but without pretentions. The recently released remaster includes 10 bonus tracks.
