"Eldorado Finale" is a song by Electric Light Orchestra. The song appears as the finale to the Eldorado concept album which includes a heavy orchestra and a strong choir. The song did appear on the boxset, Flashback.

I like the heavy chords and the slightly daft ending, where you hear the double bass players packing up their basses, because they wouldn't play another millisecond past the allotted moment.

— Jeff Lynne (2000 - Flashback)

This is a bit like Eldorado Overture but goes to many more places.

— Jeff Lynne (2001 - Eldorado Remaster)
