MOVE
ROY WOOD, JEFF LYNNE, BEV BEVAN, RICK PRICEThe Move were the best and most important British group of the late '60s that never made
a significant dent in the American market. Through the band's several phases (which were sometimes
dictated more by image than musical direction), their chief asset was guitarist and songwriter Roy Wood,
who combined a knack for Beatlesque pop with a peculiarly British, and occasionally morbid, sense of humor.
On their final albums (with considerable input from Jeff Lynne), the band became artier and more ambitious,
hinting at the orchestral rock that Wood and Lynne would devise for the Electric Light Orchestra.
The Move, however, always placed more emphasis on the pop than the art,
and never lost sight of their hardcore rock & roll roots
"LOOKING ON"
1970 LP CAPITOL RECORDS STEREO ST-658
PRINTED IN U.S.A.
This version: issued on capitol red label with purple target-like logo on top.
Also released on capitol lime-green label with purple target-like logo on top.
[This is the Capitol label of the late 1960s into early 1970s, the peak years of psychedelic,
underground and progressive rock. The oval logo has been replaced by a target logo.
The background was usually a light tone of green, less frequently red
(most albums released from May 1971 until November 1972). The target logo was dropped again
for the mid-1970s Capitol label. This label features a cut-off 'Capitol' print at the bottom center
and comes in various colours, ranging from yellow, over orange, to red.]

On the band's third studio release "Looking On", The Move found themselves
moving forward past their hybrid Beatles/Byrds/Who psychedelic influences
and more towards the harder Power Pop that both Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood
would perfect on this album. "Looking On" containing seven songs averaging
six plus minutes was more in tune with the Progressive Rock...(AllMusic)
