LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Esoteric Recordings are proud to announce the release of a newly re-mastered and expanded edition of the classic 1968 debut album by THE MOVE, “Move”. Of all of the groups to emerge in Britain in the latter half of the 1960s, THE MOVE was arguably one of the finest. A powerful act on stage, the group were blessed with one of the most imaginative songwriters of his generation in Roy Wood and a fine vocalist in Carl Wayne, complemented by Bev Bevan (drums), Trevor Burton (guitar) and Ace Kefford (bass).

Released in the UK in April 1968, “Move” followed on from the international success the band had achieved with the classic singles ‘Night Of Fear’, ‘I Can Hear The Grass Grow’, ‘Flowers in the Rain’ and ‘Fire Brigade’. Their first album, “Move”, demonstrated the imaginative diversity of the band and saw them break new ground creatively.

Newly re-mastered, this edition of “Move” focuses on the Mono mix of the album and includes five bonus tracks, including the classic singles ‘Night Of Fear’ and ‘I Can Hear The Grass Grow’
