Roy Wood singing See My Baby Jive, live on JOOLS Hogmany Show 2016/17 BBC TWO

[@allanarmstrong4333]

Back in the early 70s. I drove a truck for a corn and seed merchants in halesowen West midlands england. I had a delivery to a Mr.Roy wood. In kinver staffs. I never gave it another thought. When I got to the address on my delivery note. Nobody was home. So I walked round the back of the house. It's was called stourton hall.big massive house. And I looked through the French Windows. One big recording studio .Then the penny dropped. Mr .Roy wood. I went back a few weeks later and someone was home then. It was Roy himself. He said can you put the hay n feed over by the pen. He was sutch a nice chap and he gave me £5 . not much less than I was on a week. Well Roy I've spent my five pounds a long time ago. But I love your music and always have been a fan.

[@rockinjacchannel7784]

Yeah, I'm from the west/mids and have seen Roy in Stourbridge a few times, back in the day, a nice guy and he looked like he'd just stepped off stage !

[@davidmacgregor5193]

Roy Wood now lives in the former Howard's Arms public house in Cubley near Ashbourne, Derbyshire.

[@jaketwigden8054]

@@rockinjacchannel7784 I’m from Stourbridge originally but live in Blackpool long time fan of Roy

[@johnpereira6893]

A fiver.That would have bought a few 🍺 ales back then.

[@michael5089]

Are you still rocking my friend?❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@SavoxYT]

Roy was 70 here. The man just doesn't age.

[@curtisspeplinski6900]

I’m a yank from Chicago born in ‘79. My music education came from my Dad’s ELO, Wizzard, Cat Stevens, Tull & Genesis records, & thank god for that. I love you, Dad. Rest In Peace, and thank you.

[@markmanc-zw3td]

Good stuff innit mate ? Your Dad sounds like a class act . 🤝

[@robogamer5384]

No miming no lipsink pure talent Mr Roy Wood what a voice,give him a knighthood

[@bigmixdisco]

Class is permanent

[@andrewburman9469]

Never paid him much attention despite being my music period. I was Led Zeppelin, Stones and old blues stuff. Joined a guitar group recently and we,ve been learning some of his songs. Hooked! There he was, this gem hiding right in front of me.

[@yettsoman4364]

I was so happy when this was No1 all those years ago I cried with joy😢😂... I was a snotty kid then. Now half a century later I'm an old man and I'm bubbling again! Fantastic.

[@sandraharding2624]

I was pregnant and my baby moved for the first time, the day ( night ) this went to number 1. I was in the pub having a can of coke. Absolutely brilliant artist ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mwng631]

Roy Wood: fucking genius. Seriously underrated.

[@mwng631]

True.

[@mwng631]

Indeed.

[@pcno2832]

More un-known than under-rated. The original version of "Do Ya" is the only record that got any airplay over here with his voice on it. He'd have probably done better with more exposure, but things like that happen half by luck.

[@chrisevelyons8168]

I always thought so!!

[@latengocomoburro]

*George Texstel* He has good music and he wouln't have been underrated in America if he would have not dressed ridiculous, disturbing and downright scary. Overhere we see stuff like that as Eurotrash.

[@geoffjoffy]

What a performance. The guy is in his mid 70s. Has the lungs of a 20 year old. Amazing voice. Just utterly brilliant. RESPECT!!!!

[@andrewlloyd4354]

Takes a special talent to give me goosebumps! Roy I'm 63, I've loved your music so much since I was a spotty teen. Love you and thanks for the music and the memories. Xx

[@rhylwolves5649]

What a friggin voice class

[@willsmith5873]

My name is William Smith and I was the boy playing the drum in the video it's really good to see this on KZbin the memories serve me well I think I'm still trying to get glitter out of my hair

[@CRsunsout]

If you were the guy playing the drums you're some fucking drummer my friend

[@gazgibster]

amazing great song great artist. Roy wood what a legend .

[@kes550]

Love love love this man I’m 64 in may and I’ve followed him all these years he is just amazing 😍😍😍😍😍

[@raystewart6524]

Why has this man never got a Knighthood for his services to music....one word.. LEGEND

[@sandraharding2624]

This is my favourite song of all time. I was pregnant in 73, this song came on the jukebox and my baby kicked me for the first day. As it was my first child I didn't know what to expect. Needless to say my son loves this also. What an underrated artist Roy Wood is. He livened up the 70's fantastic music fantastic group

[@davidclowsley8081]

As already stated.......Roy Wood - absolute musical genius and seriously underrated - never given the credit for being so unique and SO talented. Lov u RW. DC. x

[@Griffo5446]

Roy can play any musical instrument .a true musician 😊besides being a legend in his own lifetime 😊😊😊😊

[@gerardmelvin8670]

Great to see Roy still has it brilliant stole the show.

[@noelenemeredith8310]

I can't believe that even though I was a teenager in Australia in the 70s I only discovered Roy Wood about two weeks ago and I'm freakin' hooked. What an amazing talent and totally underrated.

[@dennispicone6801]

From memory, this was released on 33 vinyl, back in about 1974 here in Australia 🇦🇺. ❤😅

[@simonlitten]

Really nice to hear a big band version of this 1970s classic (and no roller skates). Also, I'm so glad Roy's voice has stood the test of time.

[@glenjarnold]

The great man still has it over 40 years later! Not like today's "here today, gone tomorrow" lot!

[@grahamrickit5608]

I so remember this song, my favourite way to dance with ladies. Beautiful! Go Son! Sing it.

[@Garywilson12341]

Brilliant, one of the best writers and performers Britain has ever had. I owned a music company back in the 60's and 70's and worked alongside Roy many times, when he was with Don Arden and Jet Records. In 1973 I bought a new Rolls and with one of my pals drove it to Mallorca, and this was one of the songs I had my engineer record for me and I must have played it a couple of hundred times between Fulham and Barcelona. Great song, great fun, no bullshit just good old "down home" rock n roll. And I still love it!!!

[@trevorastley1727]

What a Massive Trooper of Pop he is..Just did it for the love of just doing it. He could play every instrument on that stage ill bet.

[@itsayesfromme2669]

A pop song writing genius. Sooooo underrated. As good as anyone. A life time of pop gems.

[@john-fl2qu]

GREAT STUFF AND CAN STILL HIT IT , BETTER THAN TODAYS CRAP

[@outtathyme5679]

The unassuming musical genius

[@DEATH-THE-GOAT]

This is much better then the wall of sound I use to get in the 70th. Now the wizzard realy comes to his right.... after 50 years 😃👍

[@cpcorcoran8321]

What a legend. Always been a huge fan.

[@janefriel6895]

Wow his voice is still great.I grew up in the 70's and now this is my son's favourite artist,he's 20 this year.That speaks volumes.

[@harwoods11]

Roy Wood. Brilliant!! like many others, i grew up on this music

[@garynutt63]

Saw Roy Wood in Torquay a few months ago and as expected the Legend was brilliant. See my baby Jive has to be one of the greatest tunes ever. Keep on rocking Roy

[@cliffcarr3632]

I will give Roy his due, after all these years he is still going, a true music artist and a great guy. He used to go out with Annie Haslam from Renaissance, so he had great taste too!

[@alanm1894]

Roy Wood forever the best legend with a brilliant song. He produced so much music that I truly enjoyed. When is he going to get a knighthood?

[@PeteBurns-xv2fz]

Still has his great voice...what a guy roy wood is....a true legend of music 🍻✌

[@PaulLea]

This song was HUGE in New Zealand when I was 13 and everyones favourite song, good on ya Roy for still rockin !.

[@morris2450]

Remember this song as a young pup in NZ. Loved his make up ..he was out there with the best

[@WallsofFameAustralia]

I remember the very first time I heard this on the radio in Perth Western Australia. Everyone laughed when I said THAT IS A HIT !!!!! I guess it was. YES!

[@jillyb710]

Always loved Roy Woods voice - During the Move and Wizzard !! Excellent- Roy Wood LEGEND!!!

[@skywatcher4076]

I often tell my friends this is a favourite when I was 12 in 1973, I still listen to this for nostalgia.

[@MrPlanetthanet]

That voice is impressive considering his age.

[@novembaer69]

One of the most remarkable voices in Rock`n Roll. Great song,great band !

[@greitje50]

He's 70? Aged very well. My new favorite singer! Just found him on youtube. Play every day!

[@iguanaplays1657]

If not for Roy wood elo wouldn't have ever existed

[@paulnic7190]

Good voice for an older bloke

[@joewatt8160]

[@db6439]

The Great Man over 40 Years later Amazing Voice

[@paulputnam8211]

Still rockin' after all these years ! Make it SIR Roy Wood please - the man is a legend !

[@annebingham5827]

He was my hero I would love to meet him he’s gorgeous

[@paullynch928]

My Dad did he worked at a company who did his teeth. Dad said he was a pure gent. So polite and modest. Humble to sum Roy up.

[@johnhanson2892]

Best musician ever, no arguments. Still my number 1.

[@TechTins_Projects]

I worked one time at Cropredy folk festival as a stage hand in 1998. Roy wood headlined and afterwards there was a small back stage party. I was using backstage toilet when Roy walked in. Only two of us in makeshift urinal. I realised who it was and just said. "I suppose its good now to have a break after that lot". This amazing talent just said. It would be, but they have to get up early next day and get everything ready again for next gig at Peterborough (or somewhere far from Cropredy). It was like talking to one of the stage hands. No airs or graces. What a nice guy. never forget meeting him. Zero ego.

[@markhall0670]

Roy Wood .... Legend

[@MrAMYJACK]

Just because I'm old now doesn't mean that I can't tell great music

[@schwedencooper]

Loved it when I was 9 years old - I still do

[@g4obb]

My nephew is a musician ( sax) and has met Roy several times, evidentially he's always happy to help and advice up and coming people.....what an enduring star....a true gent.

[@renagunning7915]

An absolute genius !!!

[@janefraser8964]

Fab! Lots of great memories! X

[@bobblundell7827]

Woody is a rock god, him on the sax' is doing a great job

[@lucreziia100]

I simply adore Roy Wood to pieces! Doesn't everyone?

[@ianmelia8851]

the brilliant roy wood

[@mariantome6264]

You are so friendly ...singing, acting, performing... Bravo..!!! from Madrid (Spain)

[@kevvome]

Still a class act, and I don't say that often. Class never goes. it may fade slightly but it is always there. Roy Wood is as good here as he has ever been. Thanks mate. If only Karl Wayne had been there with you. That truly would have been the best TV we would have seen. Thanks Rockinjac!

[@kiwizeppelin]

one of the all time great 45s

[@mickeymantool8188]

Still has an amazing voice . Love ya Roy

[@morganmbartram]

If anyone still gets me up and brings me alive to music... it's the likes of Roy Wood. Would love to create a song with this legend. I've been writing music since I was 9. Not that I can sing, but am good with words. Great to see you Roy

[@mirrortime]

We Absolutely Love You Roy. You are on our turntables, CD players, Tape Decks Etc. etc. ALWAYS!!!!

[@paulmiles9102]

[@CreosoteChris]

Knockout. Props to Roy, Jools and the whole band for that great piece of entertainment

[@lutherbuckhurst3887]

Roy wood absolutely amazing, so talented, and he looks incredible, 47 years after this song was released, he doesn't look like he's aged at all. I saw him at the corn exchange a few years back, fantastic show.

[@mariepovey4877]

Went to see him this week. He had terrible flu, but still managed to Rock. A pro through and through. I agree with bonzo dog, he was the only one worth watching New years eve, what a way to start 2017.

[@bonzodog6872]

He is an absolute treasure singing and playing as good as ever judging by this performance lucky you seeing him live bet he was fab flu or not

[@jonathanoxlade4252]

Like I said legends keep on going even if they are dying they will give up there last strength of song for you while mordern day talentless assholes get sick and don't rock on lol oh god I miss David bowie it realy sucks that talent is dying and the non talent is killing of the pure need talent that had to learn how to play nowadays it's computer generated and if your lucky to to hear chromeo and walk the moon they have talent but not the talent to get up and sing when ill

[@arthurharris6510]

Saw Roy in Bristol in January. One of the best nights of my life!

[@shaunkelly9860]

A national treasure.

[@anneliamohara2842]

[@dovidell]

[@BackToTheBlues]

Yes, the trumpets sound a bit 'showbiz' don' t they...

[@jamesdevine1005]

That is passion ...ticket to heaven.

[@anthonyruggi2985]

Very few musicians/composers are at this level. It’s a shame he isn’t more well known, one of the most underrated of all time! What an outstanding catalog .
