"We have actors from other films, from 'Baywatch,' and so on, and these people are looking exactly the opposite of what they are. The transformations were so smooth, and so funny to watch, it was unbelievable."

"I think we were probably playing live for about 12 months before we got a recording deal."

Months

Quote_1.png
Roy Wood
"Well, obviously I wanted it to sound as original as possible. I suppose the influences that we had were probably from the actual power point of view we wanted to be like the Who. Vocally we wanted to be like the Beach Boys, whatever was good at the time."

Power

Quote_1.png
Roy Wood
"I've always been a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. I always feel that you should keep singles as commercial as possible so that the people can walk down the road and whistle a song. But on the other hand on albums I think you can afford to show people what you can do."

People

"We should have gone over years before that. I always wanted to and I think most of the band did."

Years

Roy Wood
"I've always been that way. I'm not very good at reading music but I'm pretty quick at picking things up."

Music

"The first people I ever saw were probably Little Richard and Gene Vincent."

"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."

Funny

Quote_1.png
Roy Wood
"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."

Play

Roy Wood
"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."
