The Move '66-'68 lineups: Carl Wayne: vocals Roy Wood: guitar, vocals Trevor Burton: guitar/bass Ace Kefford: bass Bev Bevan: drums |
Birmingham brummies with a tough guy image but a vast talent for great pop singles! And those singles were not only radio hits - they were hits among the fans of psychedelic music as well! Talk about cross-over hits.
I'm sure you can find all hit stuff statistics in the regular pop dictionaries on the net! I am an absolute fool for their songs - but I won't list them here.
Bassist Ace Kefford left in '68 to lead his own outfit: Ace Kefford Stand. Also featured Dave Ball on guitar (later on in Procol Harum) and drum meister Cozy Powell (later with Jeff Beck Group). Released one single, a cover of 'For Your Love' (The Yardbirds). I seem to be the only guy who likes it!
Trevor Burton (who gripped the bass guitar when Ace let it go) left himself in February '69, on the verge of a U.S. tour, tired of pop biz.
