An enjoyable album by a group in transition
The Move's third and final album, Message from the Country, was released in 1971 as the group's final three members, Roy Wood, Jeff Lynne, and Bev Bevan, were transitioning into the Electric Light Orchestra. Other reviewers have considered this album to be The Move's best. I haven't heard their other albums, so I won't argue their point. Long story short: I like this album, and am glad I bought it.
My first exposure to The Move was in 1972, when "Do Ya", their only song to reach the Top 100 in the USA (at #93), hit the airwaves. (They've been very popular in the UK since the 60's.) I liked the song, but at the time, I didn't quite get the group's name. It wasn't until a recent youtube search that I found out who - and also why ELO's version of the song highly resembled the original.
The album showcase's the trio's experimentation in the studio. The album has a good share of edgy rock and roll tunes (which is the biggest draw for me). There are also some whimsical variations: "Don't Mess Me Up" sounds like a satrical sendup of Elvis's "Don't Be Cruel", while "Ben Crawley Steel Company" sounds like a spoof of hard-luck country songs - and Bev Bevan's only lead vocal on the album. (He has a deep, rich voice that I would like to hear more of. He could easily stand in for Johnny Cash.)
Besides the original ten songs, the CD has eight bonus tracks: five singles and three studio outtakes. One of the singles includes their US hit "Do Ya" (with enough cowbell to keep Bruce Dickinson happy - lol). The studio outtake of "Do Ya" includes a hidden track of an outtake of "My Marge".
If you like good music by little-known groups that don't get choked out by excessive radio airplay, or would like to get a sample of the sound that would further evolve under ELO, then I recommend this album.

Great chainsaw
I bought it to cut down some bushes that I wanted removed from my property. It works just as well as a gas chainsaw. I chose this product because the battery is compatible with other Snapper products that I have.
