Roy Wood was one of the founders, I think, of the Electric Light Orchestra - or ELO as everyone came to know them. Later the front man of Wizard all face paint and crazy costumes. He apparently played the Mason Williams piece Classical Gas alot. On ELO's first album he recorded a piece called First Movement (Jumping Biz) - which has many similarities to Classical Gas. I put together a tune called This Classical Bizz that derives from both tunes. I first recorded it in the mid 1970's
