The Move - Night Of Fear, original mono 45

The Move were one of the leading British rock bands of the 1960s from Birmingham, England. This track, Night Of Fear was released in 1966, and reached #2 in the UK Singles chart the next year. I purchased this copy new in March 1967, after auditioning it at that small underground record store in Greenwich Village.

I've got this : any idea of how much it's worth ?

[PlayThemAgain]

@RichardHell1959 Not really, but I know there are record listings that valuate old records.

One of my favourite 60s songs. You bought it in 1967? It looks brand new.

[PlayThemAgain]

@laineycrusoe Yup! It's been kept in its sleeve and in a box for all these years.

[nomiclas]

who were the members of the move?

[PlayThemAgain]

@nomiclas Wikipedia says: Although bassist-vocalist Chris "Ace" Kefford was the original leader, for most of their career The Move was led by guitarist, singer-songwriter Roy Wood. He composed all the group's UK singles and, from 1968, sang lead vocals on many songs, although Carl Wayne was the main lead singer up to 1970. Initially the band had 4 main vocalists (Wayne, Wood, Trevor Burton and Kefford). Wood, Bevan and Jeff Lynne, turned the group into the Electric Light Orchestra in 1972.

technics sl-1200 (looks like an mk2 from here) and an audio technica stylus and cartridge - the best thing you can do for your ears and music

i don't know where i heard bev had passed but i was wrong and apologize to bev.

[laineycrusoe]

@nomiclas Bev Bevan is still alive as far as I'm aware. At the time of writing, only Carl Wayne has passed away.

[nomiclas]

@laineycrusoe its a pity that bev bevan has passed

It was their first big hit. And they developed and did even better the years after. I still love the Move. You can get ithe most of their hits on CD now.
