Look Through The Eyes Of Roy Wood & Wizzard - Hits & Rarities, Brilliance & Charm 1974-1987 CD (2006) England

Wizard album

$13.29
God knows that there have been too many Roy Wood compilations released over the years, but such a complicated glut only seems fitting for an artist who would start new bands and record under different monikers at the drop of a hat. If he was that reckless, it only makes sense that his discography would be that messy, too, but Castle's 2007 double-disc set Look Thru the Eyes of Roy Wood & Wizzard tries to sort through the mess, offering up, as its subtitle says, "Hits & Rarities, Brilliance & Charm 1974-1987." Given its generous two-disc span, it would seem like this would be a comprehensive overview of Wood's solo career, something that he needs since despite the multitude of releases over the years, not one has offered all of his best songs or biggest hits on one compilation. Neither does Look Thru the Eyes, unfortunately. Take another look at the subtitle and notice that this begins not at the outset of his solo career, but a couple years into it, so there is nothing from his brilliant first album ...

Electric Light Orchestra A New World Record - Expanded Edition CD (1976) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

Wizard CD music

$7.59

Also available in a 3-pack with FACE THE MUSIC and DISCOVERY. 1976's A NEW WORLD RECORD is both a classic of commercial '70s pop and an archetypal ELO album. From the outer-space synths and rich orchestrations that open the album to Jeff Lynne's meticulous production and Beatlesque melodies, A NEW WORLD RECORD is magnificent ear candy. Both ambitious enough to appeal to "serious" rock fans and ultra-catchy enough to sound terrific on Top 40 radio (the plaintively gorgeous, McCartney-like "Telephone Line" and the anthemic "Livin' Thing" were well-deserved smashes), ELO was one of the few '70s bands whose appeal covered both the FM and AM spectrums. The album even resurrects "Do Ya," a classic single by Lynne's former band, the Move, in a splashy new version. The next ELO album, 1977's elaborate double-album OUT OF THIS WORLD, was probably the band's commercial high point, but A NEW WORLD RECORD is the group's ...

Electric Light Orchestra Face The Music CD (1975) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Expanded Edition

Wizard music CDs

$7.59

Also available in a 3-pack with A NEW WORLD RECORD and DISCOVERY. Master Sound releases are 24-karat gold CDs remastered from first-generation masters. This process utilizes 20-bit technology and Sony's revolutionary "Super Bit Mapping" system. ELO was big enough by 1974 that some people actually suggested that ELDORADO featured Satanic backward-masking. Of course, the idea was ludicrous; but the band playfully responded by adding a backward message to "Fire on High," the opening ...

In some ways, 1973's ON THE THIRD DAY is the first "true" ELO album. Though co-founder Roy Wood had left the band to form the more experimental Wizzard after the first album, his influence ...

Wizzard Wizard Brew CD (1973) Remastered

Wizard album

$10.05

Roy Wood designed Wizzard's singles to be hooky, accessible propositions. The "real art" was saved for the albums...or at least that's the impression their debut, Wizzard Brew, leaves. It's hard to tell what to make of Wizzard Brew, actually, and it seems all the stranger since it was released the same year as four jubilant, sparkling pop singles, all deliberately left off of the LP. Stylistically, the album isn't all that different from the hits -- four of the six songs are firmly rooted in '50s rock & roll, while the other two hearken back to the Move at their most self-consciously British -- but the music sounds as if it was performed by a different band. In a way, Wizzard Brew picks up where "Brontosaurus" left off, since its foundation is heavy on guitars and complicated riffing, yet that still doesn't explain the strangeness of the ...

Roy Wood Boulders CD (1973) (Import) Remastered

Wizard CD music

$8.95

An intricate, deliberately idiosyncratic record, assembled piece by piece, Boulders perfectly captures Roy Wood's peculiar genius, more so than anything else he recorded. All of his obsessions are here -- classical music, psychedelia, pre-Beatles pop, pastoral folk ballads, absurdist humor, studio trickery, and good old-fashioned rock & roll -- assembled in a gracefully eccentric fashion. Some listeners may find that eccentricity a little alienating, but it's the core of Wood's music. He wrote tuneful, accessible songs, but indulged his passions and weird ...
