Of course, the wind sort of swept up and the music was flying around in mid air and they were trying to play off it. You had to be there. It was quite funny. Roy Wood airflyfunny Change image and share on social
Unfortunately, most of the songs that I write I don't write them with guitar in mind. I just write it as a song and that was probably one of the ones that left an opening for it. The song's all right, I wouldn't choose to sing it now. Roy Wood chooseguitarleave share on social
We happened to be in the studio next door and I think Noel Redding came around and said, 'Do you fancy having a sing on this?' We just went and did it and it was great. Roy Wood doorfancygreat Change image and share on social
I think we were probably playing live for about 12 months before we got a recording deal. Roy Wood deallivemonth Change image and share on social
I've always been that way. I'm not very good at reading music but I'm pretty quick at picking things up. Roy Wood goodhavemusic Change image and share on social
I think it was probably down to the fact that we weren't together personally as a band. We weren't pulling in the same direction. I always feel if you're having a good time in the studio it actually comes across on the tape and that was a bit of a miserable album for us. Roy Wood albumbandbite share on social
When we did a lot of that Motown stuff there were four of us on the front line. When we started the evening we'd start from one end of the band and just go along. The lead singer would change all the time. That's the first time that I actually managed to put it into a record. Roy Wood bandchangeend share on social
When we were first started we were doing a lot of Motown stuff, but actually playing it more in a rock way. Everybody in the band sang and we did a lot of harmonies. Roy Wood bandharmonylot Change image and share on social
The first people I ever saw were probably Little Richard and Gene Vincent. Roy Wood genepeoplerichard Change image and share on social
I named it that because more or less each person from the band used to play in other bands and when we left respective bands other members from those bands all sort of changed round. It was a big sort of move thing. I got it from that, I suppose. Roy Wood bandbigchange share on social
