Move (Deluxe 2-CD Expanded Edition)Move (Deluxe 2-CD Expanded Edition) by The Move
Buy new: £8.98 / Used from: £6.34
A pop masterpiece. Excellent songwriting from Wood. "Yellow Rainbow", "Girl Outside" and "Walk Upon The Water" worth the price alone.
Macross PlusMacross Plus by Original Soundtrack
Buy used from: £21.95
Originally an E.P. This is so far away from their hit singles and shows the the heavier aprroach they were to take in the studio
ShazamShazam by The Move
Buy new: £11.98 / Used from: £6.08
One side Woody originals, one side covers. It works well but the first side will draw your attention more. "Cherry Blossom Clinic...revisited" is probably the best Move song ever.
Looking on (remastered)Looking on (remastered) by The Move
Buy new: £14.19 / Used from: £4.24
Exit Carl Wayne and enter Jeff Lynne. The heaviest Move album. Features the hit single "Brontosaurus"
Message from the CountryMessage from the Country by The Move
Buy used from: £4.20
Probably the best Move album. Recorded around the same time as the first ELO album. The first to show that Jeff Lynne was an equal in the songwriting stakes.

Thjere are many Move Greatest Hits albums. This is the most comprehensive
The Electric Light OrchestraThe Electric Light Orchestra by The Electric Light Orchestra (ELO)
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.16
The first ELO album. Two contrasting styles of songwriting. Wood almost goes medieval. Jeff veers towards pop and deilvers the more rewarding set. Wood soon leaves the band...
Wizzard BrewWizzard Brew by Roy Wood
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £9.89
...and forms Wizzard. This album does not represent those fabulous Wizzard singles from 1973. Everthing goes here and on "Get on down to Memphis" Wood does not sing, he screams.
BouldersBoulders by Roy Wood
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.20
A true solo album. Many styles of music here. It was recorded in 1969 but left in the can because of Move committments. Many regard this as his best album
Introducing Eddy & the FalconsIntroducing Eddy & the Falcons by Roy Wood & Wizzard
Buy used from: £39.99
Rock n Roll in the 1970's. Some fine tracks here but lacks originality
MustardMustard by Roy Wood
Buy used from: £34.89
My persoanl favourite Wood album. Again many styles of music from Andrews Sisters to Beach Boys. "Look through the Eyes of a Fool" should have been an enormous hit single
Super Active WizzoSuper Active Wizzo by Roy Wood's Wizzo Band
Buy new: £9.98
Lengthy jazz workouts quite reminiscent of Wizzard Brew. "Earthrise" is the highlight
On the Road AgainOn the Road Again by Roy Wood
Buy new: £9.98 / Used from: £15.00
This 1979 offering was never released in the U.K. which is a shame as it was one of his best efforts.
Starting UpStarting Up by Roy Wood
Buy used from: £12.00
Roy's last album from 1986. A strong set of songs destroyed by that tinny 80's production!
