The Movies (band)
The Movies were a 6-piece British rock band prominent in the pub rock era of the mid-late 1970s. The band released five studio albums between 1975 and 1981. After their debut album, released by Firefly Records (dismissed as "a rather spotty, nondescript affair" by Richard Cromelin in Phonograph Record), they signed to GTO Records. They moved on again to RCA Records for their last two albums. They also recorded a session for John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show in 1977, and had a live performance broadcast on the Radio 1 show In Concert the same year. The band made three appearances on the BBC television programme The Old Grey Whistle Test, in 1977, 1978, and 1980.
