Roy Wood's work with The Move, ELO, solo and with Wizzard is amazingly robust and inventive. He remains his peculiar self while channeling everyone from the Beatles to Phil Spector to the Beach Boys to Carl Perkins etc. You name it--Wood is a human jukebox. His work with Wizzard especially reaches the phantasmogorical. This is big, daring, rocking, tuneful, ambitious, sometimes dangerous stuff--postmodern before its time. And three decades later, it still sounds fresh and exciting.

Great service. My item was for xmas and I didnt think it would get here, to Australia, in time, but it was here with time to spare. Many thanks.

This is a superb collection, and others here have duly noted Roy's genius. But I'm mildly disappointed that "Eddy and the Falcons" is under-represented here (where is Come Back Karen?). And I'm completely bummed that neither the MOVE nor ELO version of "Do Ya" is on here.

Roy Wood is a talented musician and performer. I highly recommend this collection as well as Boulders, the Move and ELO.
