After 10 years of finding and locating the lost master and multi-track tapes the Move are back better sounding then ever!It was to utter amazement that there is a review moaning of clipping.I have looked at the wave in soundforge and there are no clipped waves at all!No sign of compression to create those horrid loud distorted CD's which are mostly done these days.I have compared these remasters to the original lp's that i own and have converted to cdr from a audiophile turntable.Even removing the clicks and pops with professional software.The remastered CD's sound better by far.I cannot see how anyone can say the Movements set is better it really sounds horrid.I would recommend you visit the FTM site and hear the mp3 previews of all the tracks on these remasters for yourselves.Even in MP3 mode they sound great.The CD's sound fantastic.Rest assured these are the best sounding CD's of the early Move you will have heard!The bonus songs are great and the new stereo mix's really are something else.Also you will have access from the CD's to 5 songs on the web that you can download!All in all bargain and well worth the long wait!

Information on Amazon describing this as a 2 disc edition is incorrect. It is one disc with bonus tracks. The remastering is excellent, and the Busher review below which only gives it 2 stars is actually a review for the first album 'Move', so you can ignore it! Pricing seems a little erratic too; on Amazon the 2 disc first album costs considerably less than the single disc Shazam! Both should be bought by connoisseurs of 60's pop and proto psychedelia. Where on earth was the 'Yellow Rainbow' leading us to?

The other vinyl album tucked away in the Gallagher brothers LP collection that ISN'T a Beatles record and probably the real influence behind such Oasis concert staples as "Wonderwall" and "Champagne Supernova", The Move's long lost but sadly neglected classic 'SHAZAM' is back.
Perhaps one of the most long awaited and stellar remasters released this year, The Move's long lost and fully restored masterpiece returns to the shelves for a new generation of fans, a sonic smorgasboard of late sixties Brit brand turbine-powered pop, gargantuan sludge metal crunch, take-your-breath-away-oh-so-pretty balladry, ethereal psych-a-delicate classical folk guitar rock wizardry, a raga rock passage Concorded in from the Monterey Pop Festival, and loads and loads of beery good natured Brummy humour, as an identifiable a Move trademark as its big brown purple shake-your-ass-down-to-your-soul bass guitar. Lovingly restored, with a great collection of period photos and knowledgable entertaining essays, this also includes wonderful restored and remastered bonus tracks and alternate takes, such as the number one hit, Blackberry Way and the sexy rocking careening but criminally-neglected should-have-been hit Wild Tiger Woman. A geezer can't go wrong, here.

A good prog rock album made into a classic by the bonus "poppy" tracks
The original album features longer tracks, sometimes heavy/experimental and a little bluesy or psychedelic The bonus material is more poppy in nature, something The Move were... Read more

THAT DIFFICULT SECOND ALBUM
Shazam sees The Move, not only in a transitional phase, but also pulling in two different directions at once. Read more

Which idiot hit maximise?
This was a great album on vinyl, unfortunately some twit has tried to improve it. Better than nothing, but the sound is not good - boomy and spacey.

oh dear me..... shazam lacks any magic..
If it was not for the bonus tracks this would only get two stars. The first six tracks were the original album, though they do show Carl Wayne to have been an excellent vocalist... Read more

Excellent Content...Poor Remastering
Much has been said about how the master tapes for this album took years to find. Unfotunately, it's mostly for naught, as this new reissue suffers from seriously botched mastering. Read more

What a fantastic start to a genuinely exciting reissue series
What can I say? Reissues may come and go featuring The Move, but none have ever been treated as well as the first two albums recently issued. Read more

Very Moving!
"Shazam" is a glorious mess! That's a good thing.
Over-produced and muddily-mixed, this 1970 offering from The Move will possibly blow up your speakers! Read more

A Juicy Slice of Pop History
Mix near-equal quantities of pop and pop-rock, add a cup of hard rock, some jam, stir artfully and let simmer for a touch over 30 years. Read more
