Move It on Over

by George Thorogood, George Thorogood & the Destroyers

Overview

In 1978, George Thorogood was just beginning to make some noise on the blues-rock circuit. This was his second album, and what's now almost a cliche then sounded fresh and vital. Thorogood's energy, rousing vocals, and driving guitar playing came roaring through on inspired covers of Elmore James' "The Sky Is Crying," Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love," and Chuck Berry's "It Wasn't Me." He even did a credible Piedmont blues on Brownie McGhee's "So Much Trouble." While Thorogood went on to make more commercially successful albums, the spirit and innocence in his early releases has seldom been duplicated. ~ Ron Wynn
