Leonardo "Flaco" Jiménez (March 11, 1939-July 31, 2025)
The Move was a British rock band of the late 1960s and the early 1970s who, for most of their career, were 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 (initially, the band had four main vocalists: Wood, Carl Wayne, Trevor Burton and Chris "Ace" Kefford who shared the lead vocal role).
" I Can Hear the Grass Grow " is the second single by the Move, written by Roy Wood and produced by Denny Cordell.
The Move evolved from several mid-1960s Birmingham-based groups, including Carl Wayne & The Vikings, The Nightriders & The Mayfair Set. The group's name seems to refer to the move various members of these bands made to form the group. Beside Roy Wood, the original members of the Move were drummer Bev Bevan, bassist Chris "Ace" Kefford, vocalist Carl Wayne & guitarist Trevor Burton.
Flowers In The Rain
The song was written by the Move's guitarist/vocalist Roy Wood, produced by Denny Cordell, and recorded on the 6th of July in Advision Studios (based in London).
'I Can Hear the Grass Grow', 'Blackberry Way' & Flowers in the Rain (the latter being the first record played on BBC Radio 1), are The Move's better known work not forgetting 1971's 'Tonight'. The group became more experimental and innovative as time went on especially on the albums 'Shazam' and 'Message from the Country'.
Fire Brigade" Fire Brigade " is a song written by Roy Wood and performed by The Move. Released as the group's fourth single in the United Kingdom on the 26th of January, 1968, on Regal Zonophone Records and with the B-side "Walk Upon the Water", it reached No. 3 in the UK Singles Chart.
Blackberry Way
"Blackberry Way" is a 1968 single by British band the Move. Written by the band's guitarist/vocalist Roy Wood and produced by Jimmy Miller, "Blackberry Way" was a bleak counterpoint to the sunny psychedelia of earlier recordings. It nevertheless became the band's most successful single, reaching number 1 on the UK singles chart in February 1969
Members Ace Kefford (1965 – 1968) Bev Bevan (1965 – 1972) Carl Wayne (1965 – 1970) Jeff Lynne (1970 – 1972) Rick Price (1970 – 1972) Roy Wood (1965 – 1972) Trevor Burton (1965 – 1969)
Note:
I had the pleasure of seeing the band play live once. That was during a great festival in Belgium (Jazz Bilzen 1968). That same evening also The Small Faces, Chris Farlow, Alexis Corner, etc.

Cover by Chuck Prophet (album Wake The dead)
Sally was a cop but now she′s a solider
another foot deep
another debt older
I used to be on top
now I just roll over
I used to run hot
now I run a little colder
