The Movers Greatest Hits: Volume Six (1972)


 It has been a while since we posted anything from this stand-out seventies band. Electric Jive still has some way to go in documenting the prolific output of a band that started with soul, and changed with the times, chewing up and delivering distinctly South African takes on ska, pop, bump, disco and more during a hugely prolific decade.

Like Siemon's 2011 post of Volume 4 from the Movers, here, this and next week's post - perhaps another Movers rarity - are put together in more of a hurry than I would like, as I try and complete my "to-do" list ahead of some required travel.

If you have not worked it out yet, check out the search bar on the right hand side of this blog. If you type in "Movers" there you will get a listing (at the top of the page) of seven previous posts on this blog. Enjoy!

  1. On the innovative proudly SA music scene of yesteryear The Movers were, indeed, a formidable force to reckon with. Would be great to hear their other volumes - and many thanks for those already posted on EJ.
