The Move - "Feel Too Good"

Truly one of the most underrated rock epics of all time, The Move's "Feel Too Good" is a sledgehammer, soul/funk free for all. Coming in smoothly with confident drumwork, the bass thumps down with no regard for anything in sight. The guitars enter viciously while Roy Wood delivers one of his most enthusiastic lead vocals.

From the band's third full length album Looking On, released in the fall of 1970, "Feel Too Good" shows The Move changing at an alarming rate. Starting off as a psyche pop group with their self titled and a handful of singles, the band grew more muscular with Shazaam (1970). With the entrance of The Idle Race's Jeff Lynne, The Move began to take a backseat to Lynne and Wood's new project - Electric Light Orchestra. While contarctual obligations kept them linked to The Move for another two albums, they handled their disinterest incredibly well - cutting two solid records with Looking On and Message From The Country, as well as a few non album singles, like the amazing "Chinatown".

For "Feel Too Good", the band slams through a full nine minutes of hard hitting pyschedleic rock. Complete with bakup singers and swirling eastern tinged guiatr solos, the track is a non stop thrill ride with a curious, but always delightful barbershop quartet outro.
