Page "The Move" Paragraph 20

According to an interview in 2000, Wayne had devised a plan to revive The Move's fortunes by bringing Burton and Kefford back in.

Well aware that Wood was intent on setting up his new orchestral rock project ( which eventually became ELO ), he suggested that Wood could concentrate on performing with his new band while continuing to write songs for The Move.

However his suggestion was bluntly rejected by Wood, Bevan and Price, the other three members, so Wayne finally quit the group in January 1970.

He subsequently worked in a variety of musical ventures and appeared on television and radio.

In 2000 he replaced Allan Clarke as lead singer of The Hollies and performed with them as lead singer until his death from cancer in 2004.
