The Move (Music) | comment |
The Move were a British Invasion band formed in Birmingham, England in late 1965. As they were all veterans of local “Brummie� acts, they took their name from the fact that they had ‘’moved’’ from other bands to found a new one. Roy Wood was the band’s leader and primary songwriter for most of their existence.The Move were band of opposites: on their debut album alone, raucous songs like “Fire Brigade� co-existed alongside airy psychedelic pop like “Flowers in the Rain.� Initially, their manager Tony Secunda gave them a tough-guy image, complete with a stage act where they smashed cars and televisions. They also wore brightly colored suit jackets that made them look like a cross between gangsters and Lupin III. Luckily, the band had the killer songs and instrumental chops to be much more than a gimmicky novelty band. When former Idle Race member Jeff Lynne joined in 1969, they began their transition to orchestral, string-driven, Beatlesque pop-rock, finally morphing into Electric Light Orchestra. | |

The Move (Music) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: "Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited" from Shazam, a heavier, more ominous remake of "Cherry Blossom Clinic" from the band's debut. | |

Rock Me, Amadeus!: The riff for the band's first hit, "Night of Fear," is based on Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. | |

The Move (Music) / int_51f90774 | comment |
Step Up to the Microphone: Drummer Bev Bevan sings lead on both a cover of "Zing Went the Strings of My Heart" on the debut album and "Ben Crawley Steel Company", an album track from Message from the Country, utilizing a distinct "bullfrog" baritone that would later become the bass voice on ELO's three-part harmonies. | |

The Move (Music) / int_5be7bcfa | comment |
Older Than They Think: See Rock Me, Amadeus!, below. The band invoked this trope in 1966, before The Beatles or succeeding progressive rock artists even thought of incorporating classical elements. ELO was a natural progression for the band. | |
