Move Biography Updated

An updated biography of the Move appears on the Face the Music website. It traces the history of the group from its beginnings in Birmingham in 1966 through its rise to one of Britain's top rock acts, surpassed only by the Beatles and Rolling Stones.

The Move's "Message From the Country," expanded and remastered edition, will finally be released on September 5, 2005.

The long-awaited edition will contain the original LP, all of The Move's Harvest single A & B-sides (Tonight, Chinatown, Down On The Bay, California Man) plus previously unreleased session tracks.

The album, which was released in 1971, was the last by the group before it eventually formed into the Electric Light Orchestra.
