The Move, from Birmingham, England, were one of the leading British rock bands of the 1960s. They scored nine Top 20 UK singles in five years, but were among the most popular British bands not to find any real success in the United States.[4][5] Although bassist-vocalist Chris "Ace" Kefford was the original leader, for most of their career, The Move was led by guitarist, singer and songwriter Roy Wood. He wrote all the group's UK singles and, from 1968, also 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) who split the lead vocals on a number of their earlier songs.[4]Formation and early career[edit]
The Move were formed in December 1965, and played their first shows in early 1966. The original intentions of Burton, Kefford, and Wood were to start a group from among Birmingham's best musicians — along similar lines to The Who. The three played together at jam sessions at Birmingham's Cedar Club, and invited Wayne and Bevan to join their new group. After a debut at the Bell Hotel in Stourbridge and further bookings around the Birmingham area, Moody Blues manager Tony Secunda offered to manage them. At the time, the Move mainly played covers of American west coast groups such as The Byrds together with Motown and rock 'n' roll songs. Although Carl Wayne handled most of the lead vocals, all the band members shared harmonies, and each was allowed at least one lead vocal per show (and often traded lead vocals within specific songs).[6]

Secunda got them a weekly residency at London's Marquee Club in 1966, where they appeared dressed in gangster regalia.[1] Their early career was marked by a series of publicity stunts, high-profile media events and outrageous stage antics masterminded by Secunda; they included Wayne taking an axe to television sets, Cadillacs, busts of Adolf Hitler and Rhodesian leader Ian Smith.[1] Eventually, Secunda also

    White people adopted aspects of rhythm and blues and transformed it into what became known as rock and roll. Black people were the creators of rhythm and blues. They were known for singing this kind of music but were not recognized for their talent because of the racism at the time. The Chess brothers in Chicago began looking for White musicians who could sing this exciting new version of rhythm and blues in the early fifties. At the time rhythm and blues was becoming very popular and had many listeners. During the fifties, in increasing numbers, young people turned to rhythm and blues music.

In the early 1900’s African Americans in the southern United States played blues and spiritual music. Robert Johnson began playing blues on his guitar in the 1930’s.
