Move It - Cliff Richard - 2009

I have mentioned elsewhere about a recording I have of Cliff Richard singing Move It. Not the 1958 version, but a 1983 version he did for an album called From The Heart. With an amazing bass.

Until today I have not found any recording other than the 1958 version .. which has virtually no bass in it at all. They could have done with the recording equipment available to us today! But searching YouTube I have found a video very similar to that 1983 version. This is from a concert Cliff gave in 2009 for 'The One Show'. Listen with headphones, or speakers with a sub-woofer. This will really get you going!

Well, I first put this topic up in December 2017 and included three YouTube videos I had found of Move It with this amazing bass. But today (29/05/2020) I notice that YouTube have taken all three videos down for infringing Copyright. So our Sir Cliff doesn't like us listening to him singing this later version of his song.. But all is not lost. I have found another clip of this and am posting it here. Have a listen, as by tomorrow it very well may be taken down.

Hi Hugh,

A good one, the reason it sounds so good at the bottom end is , Bruce Welch a local lad from Chester-le-street like myself is hammering away on the bass notes instead of just playing chords as most rhythm guitarists do, which gives it a great bass beat sound, one of the best groups back in the day

Looking down the search page on YouTube I have found another clip of Cliff playing a later version of Move It. This is it, below. But the recording is a bit low on volume, so turn your main laptop/computer volume up a bit!

Here is the first Move It Sir Cliff did in 1958 with The Drifters .. who later changed their name to The Shadows. If you listen to this original recording you will see what I mean about the bass.
