The Move were one of the finest and most contradictory groups of the sixties. A successful string of memorable hit singles, all written by Roy Wood, were set against a brutal, dynamic and musically thrilling live act.
Formed during an impromptu after-hours jam session at Birmingham's legendary Cedar Club in October 1965, the original Move was made up of members of the cream of Brummie bands: Bev Bevan, Carl Wayne, Chris "Ace" Kefford (Carl Wayne & The Vikings), Roy Wood (The Nightriders), and Trevor Burton (Danny King & The Mayfair Set.) Rick Price and Jeff Lynne joined during The Move's later years, before the group metamorphasised into the Electric Light Orchestra.
