The Move were one of the leading British rock bands of the 1960s from Birmingham, England, and were among the most popular British bands to not find any success in the US. The Move were led by guitarist, singer and songwriter Roy Wood (although Chris "Ace" Kefford was their original leader), who composed all the group's UK singles and from 1968 also sang lead vocal on many of them, although Carl Wayne was their primary singer through 1969.

  • The Move were one of the leading British rock bands of the 1960s from Birmingham, England, and were among the most popular British bands to not find any success in the US. The Move were led by guitarist, singer and songwriter Roy Wood (although Chris "Ace" Kefford was their original leader), who composed all the group's UK singles and from 1968 also sang lead vocal on many of them, although Carl Wayne was their primary singer through 1969. (In actual fact, from their beginning, they had four singers, Carl Wayne, Roy Wood, Ace Kefford and Trevor Burton. They shared vocals plus did the close harmonies. ) They were extremely successful in Britain in their early career, scoring nine Top 20 UK singles in five years, but they were not as well known in the United States. Nevertheless, they have been credited as an influence on many later groups on both sides of the Atlantic. The group evolved from several mid 1960s Birmingham based groups, including Carl Wayne and the Vikings, the Nightriders and the Mayfair Set. Strongly influenced by The Beatles, Motown and the emerging American 'West Coast' sound, The Move quickly established a reputation as one of the most accomplished and exciting live acts of the period. The group's name seems to refer to the move various members of these bands made to form the group. Beside Wood, the original members of The Move in 1966 were drummer Bev Bevan, bassist Chris "Ace" Kefford, vocalist Carl Wayne and guitarist Trevor Burton. The concluding members in 1972 were the trio of Wood, Bevan and guitarist-pianist Jeff Lynne, who is commonly credited, along with Wood, with transitioning the group into The Electric Light Orchestra.

  • The Move é uma banda de rock dos anos 60 formada em Birmingham, Inglaterra, por Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, Chris "Ace" Kefford, Carl Wayne (vocal) e Trevor Burton (guitarra). O grupo originou-se de vários bandas de Birmingham, como Carl Wayne and the Vikings, Nightrider e Mayfair Set. Seus primeiro shows foram no começo de 1966, e o Move logo ganharia notoriedade por seus arranjos vocais elaborados e a influência de soul music e bandas da Costa Oeste dos Estados Unidos como The Beach Boys, The Byrds, Love e Moby Grape. O empresário da banda, Tony Secunda, arrumou para eles shows semanais no Marquee Club de Londres, onde eles passaram a se apresentar vestidos de gângsters. Conhecidos por suas apresentações ultrajantes, eles foram processados pelo Primeiro Ministro da Grã-Bretanha Harold Wilson, depois que Secunda, para promover o novo compacto "Flowers in the Rain", mandou fazer um cartão postal com uma foto de Wilson na cama com uma mulher que ele supostamente estava tendo um caso. O Move continuou durante os anos 70, apesar de diversas mudanças na formação. Embora nunca tenham sido tão populares nos Estados Unidos quanto em sua terra natal, o Move foi um dos grupos pops mais importantes de sua época, frequentemente citados como um dos principais precursores do power pop. "Flowers in the Rain" foi a primeira música tocada na Radio 1 da BBC quando a rádio começou em 1967. Carl Wayne, que juntou-se ao The Hollies em 2000, morreu em 31 de agosto de 2004 depois de uma longa batalha contra um câncer.
  • 'The Move este fost o formaţie rock britanică din Birmingham, care spre deosebire de late formaţii britanice nu au avut prea mare succes în SUA. În perioada de succes, conducătorul grupului a fost chitaristul şi vocalistul Roy Wood, dar la începutul carierei lor muzicale liderul a fost Ace Kefford. În Marea Britanie au avut 9 single-uri în topul 20 într-o perioadă de 5 ani. Membrii, care aveau experienţă din activitate cu alte formaţii din Birmingham, au fost iniţial influenţaţi de The Beatles, de stilul formaţiilor de la casa de discuri Motown şi de sunetul "West Coast". Iniţial, formaţia consta din: Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, Ace Kefford, Carl Wayne (vocalist) şi Trevor Burton. În 1972, membrii de bază erau Wood, Bevan şi Jeff Lynne (chitară, pian), Wood şi Lynne formând mai apoi The Electric Light Orchestra. Concertele formaţiei The Move au fost marcate de acţiuni menite să atragă atenţia mass-mediei. De exemplu, Wood distrugea cu un topor pe scenă aparate TV, maşini Cadillac, busturi ale lui Hitler şi Ian Smith etc. Managerul lor, Tony Secunda, a reuşit să le aranjeze o apariţie săptămânală la renumitul "Marquee Club" din Londra, după ce The Who renunţaseră la acest privilegiu.
  • The Move — британская рок-группа, образовавшаяся в 1966 году в Бирмингеме, и исполнявшая пауэр-поп с элементами арт-рока, Motown, и психоделии американского западного побережья. В 1967—1970 годах семь синглов The Move входили в UK Top 10 (Blackberry Way в 1968 году поднимался на вершину хит-парада), но при этом группа осталась практически неизвестной в США. В 1972 году The Move трансформировались в Electric Light Orchestra, а Рой Вуд некоторое время спустя образовал группу Wizzard.
  • The Move, psykedeliskt rockband bildat 1966 i Birmingham, England. Två medlemmar Roy Wood och Jeff Lynne som senare startade Electric Light Orchestra började sina karriärer här. The Move slog aldrig igenom i USA, men var mycket populära i sitt hemland. The Move bildades genom en sammanslagning av några av de mer etablerade rockbanden från Birmingham och fick därför lite uppmärksamhet i början. Originalmedlemmar var Roy Wood (gitarr, sång), Trevor Burton (gitarr), Ace Kefford (bas), Carl Wayne (bas, sång), och Bev Bevan (trummor). Kefford lämnade gruppen i ett tidigt skede. Det var inte förrän Wood började skriva allt material gruppen framförde som de blev stora. "I Can Hear the Grass Grow", "Flowers in the Rain", "Night of Fear" och "Blackberry Way" är stora låtar med The Move från slutet av 1960-talet, varav den sistnämnda är deras mest kända. "Blackberry Way" var också deras enda låt som tog sig in på Tio i topp-listan i Sverige. Gruppens repertoar ter sig som tämligen schizofren. Det material man valde att släppte som singlar var kommersiell, lätt psykedelisk pop, medan man från och med albumet Shazam ägnade sig åt mer experimentell musik som drog åt progressiv rock. Jeff Lynne tillkom 1970. Gruppen fortsatte till 1972 då man började lägga grunden till vad som skulle komma att bli Electric Light Orchestra. ELO var tänkt att bli ett slags sidoprojekt till The Move, men det blev så framgångsrikt att man beslöt lägga ner gruppen och fortsätta satsa på ELO. Den rastlöse Wood lämnade dock snart denna konstellation för att bilda glamrockbandet Wizzard. Under 2006-2007 har gruppens album släppts i digitalt ommastrade och genomarbetade utgåvor på skivbolaget EMI och Salvo/Union Square Music.
