Bev Bevan (under an agreement with Lynne, who co-owned the ELO name with him) continued on in 1989 as [[ELO Part II]], initially with no other former ELO members, but with ELO's main orchestra conductor, Louis Clark. Bevan also recruited [[Eric Troyer]], [[Pete Haycock]], and Neil Lockwood. ELO Part II released their debut album, ''[[Electric Light Orchestra Part Two (album)|Electric Light Orchestra Part Two]]'', in May 1991, featuring songs written primarily by Troyer and Haycock. Mik Kaminski, Kelly Groucutt and Hugh McDowell, at the time working in a group called OrKestra, joined the group for their first tour in 1991. While McDowell did not stay, Groucutt and Kaminski became fully fledged members.

In 1994, after the departure of Haycock and Lockwood, the remaining five members of Part II recorded ''[[Moment of Truth (ELO Part II album)|Moment of Truth]]'' with their newest member, singer-songwriter and guitarist [[Phil Bates]]. This lineup toured up to 1999, following which Bates was replaced by [[Parthenon Huxley]]. Bevan retired from the lineup later that year and sold his share of the ELO name to Jeff Lynne in 2000, after Lynne had expressed his dismay that in certain areas the band were billed as 'ELO', rather than with '...Part II' added, suggesting it was the original outfit.{{citation needed|date=November 2022}} The remaining band members continued after they changed the group's name to [[The Orchestra (band)|The Orchestra]]. In 2001 The Orchestra released their debut (and so far only) album, ''[[No Rewind]]''. The Orchestra continues to tour, although Kaminski is the sole remaining member of the group to have been a member or affiliate of ELO, following Kelly Groucutt's death in 2009 and Louis Clark's in 2021.
