[Big Ears]

I've got the recent ELO Live, but I'll look for the Zoom Tour Live.

Cool, yeah, the 2013 ZOOM and Armchair Theatre remasters were released right alongside that one.

Ray Parker, Jr. was sued by Huey Lewis & the News for plagiarising "I Want a New Drug" with Ghostbusters, ironically "Do You Believe in Love" steals from ELO's "Sweet Talkin' Woman"!

Anyway, he also did these songs...

Raydio

Jack and Jill [#8, 1977]
You Can't Change That [#9, 1979]
A Woman Needs Love (Just Like You Do) [#4, 1981]

Solo

The Other Woman [#4, 1982]
I Still Can't Get Over Loving You [#12, 1983]
Jamie [#14, 1984]

Doesn't look like a great body of work to me...

Then again I can't remember any of his songs except Ghostbusters.

I noticed there are different versions of the Zoom remaster. I haven't heard Armchair Theatre.

It isn't. He appeared in a TV advertisement sending up his songs (can't remember the product), so it looked as if he had fallen on hard times, but could laugh at himself.
