  • Oh man this stuff just blows todays music totally away.

    Great songwriting and performance.

  • Beautiful song - beautiful performance.I´ve been a fan of very old ELO,Kuiama has been a favourite of mine for about 25 years,and I revisited The Move 2 years ago and recognised how great they were (I´m born ´68 - so I´m a late (or very early) bloomer).Since then ´Words of Aaron´ is one of the greatest songs.Thank you very, very, very much for seeing them the first time.

  • With or without Carl Wayne as vocalist, they were a good group.

  • Roy Wood was a man who was way ahead of his time! And quite a talented human being! As a musician who was once upon a time influenced by Dave Grohl the Foo Fighter, my influence now is Roy without a doubt!!

  • Jeff Lynne minus shades!

  • I'm like 57 now & play bass. I learned to get a chunky sound from entwhistle & roy wood. did you see that weird modded jazz bass he has there...looks like they turned the pickups to a radical angle & added a bunch of analogue electronics. I had a thunderbird non-reverse back then & even with that great chunky bass, I could never even get close to that great sound roy wood got. gwhatley - denver, co

  • Music from that time was great but why did they have to dress so freaky?

  • Brilliant song, but very obviously mimed. Jeff is playing a WurlTzer EP200 in the footage, but the sound is mainly that of a clapped out Steinway K, probably the Abbey Road one.

    Nice to see the vid nonetheless.

  • Video quality could be better, and the song is well, bland...

  • because we've evolved technologically and music no longer matters......it is removed from th ground......this is unfortunate......in time our bodies will also be outdated......they already are, pretty much.

  • Jeff Lynne!! w-w-ithout sunglasses! and a beautiful song at that!

  • I don't believe the Wood-Lynne version of the Move ever did a live concert after Rick Price left. The few live TV clips with Bill Hunt and Richard Tandy joining the core trio are all that exists of that version of the band playing live.
