About Wizzard
Wizzard grew out of Roy Wood's work after the Move and Electric Light Orchestra. Wood assembled the group with bassist Rick Price and other Birmingham musicians for a rock-and-roll event at Wembley. Recording at Abbey Road, the band developed a dense pop sound with multiple drummers and saxophones. Ball Park Incident began its singles sequence, followed by See My Baby Jive, Angel Fingers and I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday, alongside a flamboyant stage presentation.
