Message from the Country [US Bonus Tracks]

by
The Move
By 1971, it was clear that changes were in the offing for the Move. Message from the Country shows them carrying their sound, within the context of who they were, about as far as they could. One can hear them hit the limits of what guitars, bass, drums, and keyboards, with lots of harmony overdubs and ornate singing, could do. Indeed, parts of ...

Nuggets, Vol. 2: Original Artyfacts From the British Empire & Beyond
(2001)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
Nuggets, Lenny Kaye's original 1972 compilation of garage and psych, loomed large in the record collectors consciousness, canonizing a portion of rock that was originally laughed off while setting the standard for reissues. Rhino's 1998 box set of the same name expanded the scope of that record, replicating most of the original while gloriously ...

by
Various Artists
British Invasion: History of British Rock, Vol. 8 relies more on obscurities than its immediate predecessor, but the obscurities that are here are terrific -- Simon DuPree's "Kites," John's Children's "Desdemona," Tomorrow's "My White Bicycle" and the Moles' "We Are the Moles" are fine singles, even if they may sound a bit dated today. ...

The Move
Compared to the Move's long-gestating 1968 eponymous debut, their 1970 sophomore effort Shazam is unified. It was not culled from sessions from a period of 14 months but instead largely made at one time...but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's any easier to get a handle on the album. The Move changed greatly in the period between their first ...

Flowers in the Rain

by
The Move
Flowers in the Rain is a collection of the Move's biggest hits. Although the band never made that big of a splash in America, the album includes most of their biggest hits in England. The up-tempo psychedelic rock found here is quite good; it has aged well despite how many bands would adopt a similar sound since the album came out. The title track ...

Great Move! The Best of the Move
(1994)
more music like this
by
The Move
The title is really a misnomer; it includes much of the best of the Move, but can hardly stake a claim as a definitive collection, as it only covers their final years in the early '70s. Which isn't to say it isn't good. This is basically a spruced-up version of their final album, Message From the Country (1971), with the addition of five bonus ...

by
The Move
There's a good reason why the Move's eponymous 1968 debut album sounds like the work of two or three different bands -- actually, befitting a band with multiple lead singers, there's more than one reason. First, there's that lead singer conundrum. Carl Wayne was the group's frontman, but Roy Wood wrote the band's original tunes and sometimes took ...

The Best of the Move [A&M]

more music like this
by
The Move
Really the best of the group's early period, ranging from delightfully trippy ("Here We Go Round the Lemon Tree," "Flowers in the Rain") to downright weird ("Zing Went the Strings of My Heart, " "Night of Fear") singles and album sides that helped establish the group's reputation for eccentricity.

Electric Light Orchestra
Electric Light Orchestra's family tree is certainly a long and winding one, as evidenced by the 1999 double-disc compilation Friends and Relatives. As its title suggests, what you get here are tracks by artists who are in some way, shape, or form related to ELO, with a few live ELO tracks thrown in for good measure. In other words, don't expect a ...

by
The Move
Subtitled "The 60s Singles As and Bs," here's almost all the Move you'll ever need. If you're a fan of '60s British pop with alternating heavy dashes of pyschedelia and '50s retro-rock thrown in, the Move were the perfect embodiment of that odd blend. For newcomers, this is the group that Jeff Lynne later joined which permutated into the Electric ...

Looking On

by
The Move
Probably their weakest album, finding the group trying to blend progressive elements with lumpy hard rock boogie on obscure, extended tracks. The songs do look forward to the Electric Light Orchestra, for good or ill, in the helium-like high harmonies and the wide palette of instruments. Most of the multi-instrumentation is provided by Roy Wood, ...

Something Else from the Move

When the Move were reaching the peak of their popularity after a burst of fine psychedelic-tinged power pop singles, they issued this rather odd live five-song 12" EP consisting entirely of covers. If nothing else, it proves the Move were a dynamic live act with an eclectic range, to say the least, as they cover tunes by the Byrds, Love, Eddie ...

Looking On has never enjoyed a strong reputation among Move fans, mostly because it's neither fish nor fowl -- too self-consciously heavy in texture to slot in with their pop/rock or trippy psychedelic past, but not deeply embedded enough in progressive rock to do more than hint at the band's reincarnation as the Electric Light Orchestra, it ended ...

Like a number of those releases, The Collection focuses on the Move's 1967-1970 period, featuring the group's A-sides plus a few other album tracks. Listening to the singalong mod pop of "Flowers in the ...
