MOJO HONOURS ROY WOOD!
Mojo Magazine honoured Roy Wood with a Classic Songwriting Award at the 2010 Mojo Honours List Awards held at The Brewery in London on June 10.
„Roy Wood formed three classic British bands: The Move, ELO and Wizzard. He also wrote some of the best pop music of any era, all before he’d turned 22. He has influenced everyone from Paul Weller to Kiss. That’s why he is a Classic Songwriter – with a capital ‚C‘ and an equally capital ‚S‘. This award is long overdue if you ask me. Oh, and have you noticed that I haven’t even mentioned his evergreen role during the festive period…“ Phil Alexander (MOJO’s Editor-In-Chief)
