The Move

Psychedelic rock
Psychedelic rock

The Move is a Psychedelic rock act. Their sound grew out of Eddie Floyd, Tom Paxton, Moby Grape, Jerry Miller and Piece of My Heart. Those roots explain a lot about how The Move arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Idle Race, Manfred Mann, Herman's Hermits, The Moody Blues and The Yardbirds, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Cheap Trick, Electric Light Orchestra, The Hollies, R. Stevie Moore and H to He, Who Am the Only One, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 36 connections around The Move, reaching back through Eddie Floyd and forward to Cheap Trick.
