NEW * Fire Brigade - The Move 4K {Stereo} 1968

1968....#3 UK Singles Chart Original video edited and AI remastered with HQ spectral stereo sound. “Fire Brigade“ is a song written by Roy Wood and performed by The Move. Released as the group’s fourth single in Britain in February 1968, it reached No. 3 in the UK Singles Chart. A cover version was recorded by The Fortunes and released as a single in the US, but did not chart. According to Wood, he wrote the song in a single overnight session after manager Tony Secunda told the band, who had just finished playing a concert, that he had a studio session lined up for the next morning and that they needed to record a single. Since Wood did not have any songs ready that he thought would be a good single, the rest of the Move left him alone in a hotel room (which they normally doubled up on) to write one. The song uses a riff derived from “Somethin’ Else“ by Eddie Cochran, a work that Wood would continue to reference throughout his career.
