If it's possible for any of the three permutations to return the full discography, then that would be the best way, wouldn't it? I can't see why anyone would just want a list of "ELO" releases - in fact, it might mislead them into thnking that's all there is on the site.

I could understand if there was something different about ELO and Electric Light Orchestra (in the same way that, say, Wings are distinct from Paul McCartney), but they are one and the same - just different ways of writing it.

I agree when I look up their records on this site I expect them all to be under the same list. Currentky if someone search's elo only about three records show up. Because the rest are under electric light orchestra.

Also the name changes on the same release. If you look at the america pn face the music album the sleeve and inner sleeves all say electric light orchestra whilst the labels say the electric light orchestra. The band were using elo as shorthand for the name right from the start; The second album was called ELO2 by the electric light orchestra and The ELO ep is still credited to electric light orchestra.
