Another little-known but awesome single from 20 years ago, released in August 1998. Number 93 in the UK charts. After just a few seconds into this joyous track, it's instantly clear that indie band Mover were very much into their Northern Soul music. The guest vocals were supplied by British RnB legend Ruby Turner. With its sweet, bouncy melody and uplifting brass, this was taken from the band's self titled debut album, released the same year. The group were highly rated in the music press, but a lack of airplay and publicity meant that they were never a commercial success, although they did enjoy a good reception in Japan. The band released a second, more funk-based album 'Fly Casual' in 2000 before splitting. Frontman Sam Hazeldine now composes film soundtracks.
