Earthrise is a concept album originally released in 1985 in the UK[1] (USA 1984),[3] written by former Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) member Richard Tandy and David Morgan, both from Birmingham, UK.

The album was inspired by the iconic photo of the Earth taken during the 1968 Apollo 8 mission.

Although the album was well received by ELO fans,[5] it was not a commercial success, largely due to the absence of marketing.

[2] Rock Legacy released a remastered special edition on CD in 2011.

On November 9, 2019, to commemorate the 50th year of the Moon landings, the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire performed an orchestral version of Earthrise with Tandy and Morgan.
