Wizzard – Wizzard Brew (1973)
Prepare for a sonic assault of the best kind. Wizzard Brew is the wild, uncompromising debut album from Roy Wood’s post-Electric Light Orchestra project, Wizzard. Far from the polished pop of their hit singles, this record is a dense, experimental masterpiece of "Wall of Sound" rock, blending heavy psychedelic blues, avant-garde jazz, and pure 50s rock & roll energy.
The album is famous for its massive, chaotic production—featuring multiple drummers, a heavy horn section, and Roy Wood’s visionary multi-instrumentalism. It’s loud, eccentric, and brilliantly British, often cited as a precursor to both glam rock and the heavier sounds of the 70s. This is an essential spin for those who like their rock with a side of creative madness and massive volume.
