The Move - Sounds Of The BBC

Image
This is The Move with a mixture of BBC sessions music recorded from 1967 to 1970. Not to be confused with the official 1998 release (The Move - The BBC Sessions - Strange Fruit UK records) , this material is different and in fairness of lower quality. Whilst we do not know for certain, the probabilty is a good portion of this BBC material was recorded 'off air' from BBC Radio One, that at the time was on AM. Some clearly is studio master, and even the 'AM' element conjours up memories of listening to 1960's 'medium wave' radio stations. It is therefore reasonable to speculate that the originals of this material never made it to BBC transcription disc, or the record label had more than enough material for the 1998 (single CD) album release. Whatever the case this remains another fine 'time capsule' from one of Englands finest and most consistent bands of the 1960's. Source: BBC Radio and TV-Byen Sound Quality: Highly list
