There's never a bad time to listen to Blackberry Way. Where to begin with The Move? A truly fantastic band who were badly managed and released four great albums but with lousy timing. Blackberry Way, their sole number one, is also an anomaly in their catalogue as it was produced by Jimmy Miller, who later in 1968 would helm a run of acclaimed records by The Rolling Stones. Miller's production sets it apart from other Move tracks because it does have a vibe, a creepiness. It's a pity we never got a proper Jimmy Miller-produced Move album, but Roy Wood was too self-contained for that.
Blackberry Way is here because Richard Tandy died this past week. Best known as the keyboard player for ELO (and the only member of ELO that Jeff Lynne seemed to remember to bring along during his comeback tours of recent years), Richard also plays the harpsichord on Blackberry Way.
(I wish this was the stereo version, doesn't appear to be on streaming.)
