just when i thought i heard everything from my gen, here comes another..absoultely astonishing talent we had in the 70's. can music these days compare to so much talent and so much variety?! I trow not

[wehatemagz]

I totally agree with you. I was brought up in the 70s and loved the music at the time and still do. This is one I missed too.. but I bet there are others out there too that I havent even come across yet. Today's music?.. forget it!! It aint a patch on what we had back then. Happy days!

[2468oldschooltimes]

@wehatemagz we had style, looks, music, and fun back then!

[wehatemagz]

We certainly did! Best days of my life. I was 13 just as the glam era was starting and I loved every minute of it. Original music in abundance!!

[bevopete]

does anyone have Buffalo Station?

[wizzobond]

one of wizzard's best singles

but did not make charts??

[ecksact]

Just too damn classy for mainstream. Fantastic rock/jazz fusion from a musical genius. I must admit, although I remember buying the single, I' ve never seen a video performance of it and so I thank you for posting it.

[Sayeret1]

Amazing stuff from the multi-talented Mr. Wood. I have also never heard this track in my life before, and I was an avid Wizzard fan in the 70's. Undiluted musical genius.

[robcrotty]

fab footage from a great seventies show, teatime viewing I seem to recall, any other woody or Elo from supersonic? Chap this is class

[ELONut]

I remember watching this show back in the day

[shleml]

If you're quick (at the end) you will notice The Electric light Orchestra are the next act on.....what was the song/performance?

[bondbrookebond]

That would have been 'Evil Woman' also uploaded!

[FinnMove]

First time I heard this.

Was this a single ? Or from much later released album Main Street ?

[bondbrookebond]

Yes this was a single release, never released on Main Street album though, maybe you were thinking of Indiana Rainbow, also a single. Details below...... A/ Rattlesnake Roll (Wood) Jet

JET758 Oct.1975

B/ Can't Help My Feeling (Brady)

[njnorth1]

@bondbrookebond Ah yes, Indiana Rainbow from the forecoming album "Wizzo"

[SteveHillier]

I once saw a vid of Roy performing 'Look Thru The Eyes of a Fool', off his solo Mustard album, on Supersonic I think - not seen it since though. And of course there is the long lost Wizzo band session on Sight & Sound in 1977..not seen since it was broadcast...

[bondbrookebond]

Thanks, yes would have been better had Roy sung lead, pic quality not brill, but better than nothing, trying to find another performance from this kind of show, with L.Pigeon on.

[SteveHillier]

Wow! never seen this in all my 35 years of loving Roy Wood - thanks...it's an unacknowledged class performance and production...though why Roy gave Bob Brady the lead I don't know...Roy was the reason loved Wizzard...but then this was the beginning of the band's sharp decline...
