What a beautiful piece. I'm digging into early The Verve and absolutely floored by the greatness. Why isn't this band talked more about? It's an absolute gold mine of the 90's music.

their early music is a hidden gem. Let's keep it that way!

They were called Verve back then, but a Jazz band had already used that name so they had to add “The”

[@AntZombie121]

man I love the early Verve sound

[@Ultegra10SPD]

'Mover' (the 93 version). They themselves asked in 07 what old verve tune they never released should they rework and record? i actually requested 'Mover' and it snowballed from there. Si Jones agreed with me. They did it. Honestly '93 is so much better. the '07/08 'thaw' version of it is 'too RA' , not enough NM. -U10

[@ZanzibarBreeze]

@@Ultegra10SPD Have you heard the Northern Soul outtake over Mover? It's pretty awesome kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYLcgJWYfrqkY6M

[@ZanzibarBreeze]

@@Ultegra10SPD To be fair there weren't many options since they'd released most of the stuff which the fans were aware of. Aside from the pre-Nick demos from 1996, but they were probably out of the question anyway since they were with Simon Tong too and he wasn't invited back for the reunion. The only tracks the fans could have requested are Mover, Staring Stranger (which is an early version of Mover), Black & Blue and South Pacific.

The verve are awesome, but not quite Oasis.. obviously much bigger!

[@Ricsard]

Oasis? The Verve was more inventive, exciting and last but not least pretty original. They weren't desperately seeking for publicity. And their discography is pretty much consistently great all along.

[@Apetite4Destruction]

Absolutely amazing song. It's so beautifully perfect. There seem to be so many layers in this song, and when one gets louder the others are still audible... and it's almost impossible to explain this song as a whole. Richard Ashcroft's voice is so wonderfully lucid but simultaneously calming. There is nothing better than falling asleep under the stars listening to this song.

[@Carndog1971]

Are you kidding ? Ashcroft is a genius with or without the rest of the band. Although Pete Salisbury has played drums on a lot of Ashcrofts solo stuff

I've owned the album since 1994 and never realised there was a 3CD Collectors' Edition with this and other unreleased tracks on it before! Thank you! The search begins!

[@ZanzibarBreeze]

All of their first 3 albums have been reissued with all b-sides and unreleased tracks. Although Urban Hymns had 11 unreleased tracks which Richard refused to allow to be included in the set. You can listen to them hereL kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJmal2N6d5VlZtE Also check out Blue Pacific Ocean, an unreleased track from the recording sessions of Forth. Sounds like a track they could have wrote in 1993 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYbQhXZ-oZl4fdE

Beautifully produced, understated… I always thought it was longer At the time I always saw it as a bit of a hangover from shoegaze but it’s far more interesting than a lot of the generic stuff that was getting thumped about, and tbh by ‘93 grunge and a lot of generic grunge acts were all over the shop so this sat uniquely in its own place. I remember the music press article about the name change too oddly…

[@ZanzibarBreeze]

Fans of this track might like a track The Verve wrote in 2008 called "Blue Pacific Ocean". It's didn't make their album Forth but it's pretty much better than everything on that album. It's also the most "A Storm In Heaven" type track they'd wrote since 1993. It's a complete throw back to their early days. Get your ears around it, it's sublime: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYbQhXZ-oZl4fdE

Loved 'em when they were VERVE before all that legal s**t, most particularly their early psychedelic stuff like on 'Storm ...'. I think they kinda lost something after they started hanging round with Oasis & - IMHO - becoming a too bit predictable, though 'Catching The Butterfly' (esp live versions where McCabe can 'give it some' a bit more) is a truly awesome statement about life in general. Just for these few, aeon-spanning musical moments, I guess, they have the right to be carried around in Sedan Chairs for the rest of their lives. Awesome. Thanks for posting.
