Three CD set. First-ever complete anthology of '60s recordings from leading British harmony pop vocalist Tony Rivers. Featuring all of his studio recordings as leader of both The Castaways and Harmony Grass as well as 80 minutes of previously unreleased BBC session recordings from the same timeframe. While other contenders may have had greater commercial success, Tony Rivers was surely the British harmony pop scene's pivotal figure during the '60s. As leader of The Castaways, he made a series of superlative singles before finally scoring a hit in 1969 with the irresistible 'Move In A Little Closer Baby' shortly after the band had been relaunched as Harmony Grass. But follow-up singles failed to repeat the trick, and after the superb album 'This Is Us' was ignored, Tony left the band to accept a backroom role in the industry. Meanwhile, he made several pseudonymous singles that were instrumental in his 1975 recruitment as leader of Cliff Richard's vocal harmony trio. Move In A Little Closer is the first-ever complete anthology of Tony's exemplary studio work with both The Castaways and Harmony Grass, including a number of tracks that were unreleased at the time, as well as an entire CD's-worth of previously-unissued BBC sessions recorded with both bands.
