Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
This superlative concert video is a godsend for fans of Electric Light Orchestra, since ELO's Zoom tour was cut short, sadly, because of lackluster ticket sales. Judging from this tour-opening performance (in May 2001, at the CBS studios in Los Angeles), those canceled gigs were a major loss, because Jeff Lynne's revamped ELO is in top form, playing six new songs from Zoom (ELO's first release in 15 years) and 17 hits from the band's beloved legacy. Like the meticulous producer he is, guitarist-composer Lynne plays cordial frontman to an appreciative audience, and his re-creation of ELO's classical-rock sound is astonishing in its fidelity to the studio recordings. From the moment ELO's signature 'space-ship' stage blossoms to reveal Lynne's eight-piece ensemble (including, of course, two cellists), there's not a weak song in the brisk 98-minute set. Zoom Tour Live is ample compensation for those who bought useless tickets to an ill-fated show. --Jeff Shannon

- Zoom out a little more ....
E.L.O. Greatest live video at the moment. This is just a zoom of some of the best songs by E.L.O. Is just that E.L.O. has to many goods songs that they really need a double/triple album to make fans happy. Quality and performance is great. If you are a fan or not this is a must have album. I hope E.L.O. / Jeff Lynne release another dvd album with their greatest hits with more songs some day.

- Thank God for Jeff!
Although this concert was filmed a while back, the content is timeless. You would think it was filmed yesterday if you didn't know better. I am very grateful that this DVD was filmed and that the sound quality is top notch. So many of the great older bands will never had a chance to a DVD of this quality. This performance is outstanding.

I really hope Jeff will someday receive the attention he deserves. A true master, like he is, is doesn't come along very often. On top of his masterful songs, he appears to be a very sincere guy, and someone who you'd really enjoy being around.

I really enjoyed this DVD and feel privileged to have watched a true musical genius in action. I grew up on ELO and always love rock music with cellos, violins, organs, etc. Tom Petty, Kansas, Supertramp, Boston, etc.

May God bless Jeff and thanks for making me feel good!

- Amazing Show from an Amazing Band
My expectations for this DVD prior to seeing it but after ordering it from Amazon were mixed. E.L.O. is easily in the top 3 of my favorite musical acts just based on their studio albums alone, but how would they sound live? Not only that but how would they sound after it being so long (over 15 years) since they had disbanded?

The performance on this DVD blew away even my highest expectations. The only downside to it was that, as with any good thing, I wish it had lasted longer. As it is, it is a solid hour and a half of pure E.L.O in top form. The newer songs from the Zoom album fit in nicely with their older stuff. Nothing is out of place.

I have never seen another performance of E.L.O. live so I can't say how it stacks up against some of their other performances as far as song list and number and identity of individual performers go, but as I said, they do everything here nicely with what ... Read More

- ELO's Zoom Tour Live On Blu-ray?
I have just watched the first 8 songs of this concert and I'm totally blown away with this concert! WOW! Jeff Lynne and his band sound fantastic! How in the world could ELO's Zoom concert tour have been cancelled due to lack of interest? This concert gave me chills. It sounds so good. It is presented in 16 X 9 format. Was this concert shot with high definition cameras? If so, I would love to get this title on Blu-ray disc. Maybe Image Entertainment can take note here. There's alot of ELO fans out here. Jeff Lynne, I'm 49 years old and a huge ELO fan since I was in high school in the 70's. Your music has given me much joy over the years. I love the way it sounds. Would love to see ELO get together again and would love to see this Zoom concert on Blu-ray! Thank you for all the great songs over the years! Your music is PURE MAGIC!
