Chinatown (The Move song)

"Chinatown" is a single performed by English band The Move. Released in 1971, the song reached number 23 on the UK Singles Chart. It was recorded at the same time as the band's alter-ego Electric Light Orchestra were laying down tracks for their first album. In the US, the single (with an edited version of "Chinatown") was issued on MGM, but quickly withdrawn (probably before regular stock copies were pressed, although yellow label promos have been seen). The single with the same edit was almost immediately issued on United Artists. The B-side was the Jeff Lynne-penned song "Down on the Bay".

Former Move vocalist Carl Wayne said it was his favourite single by the band. Record World said that the Move "sound[ed] ready to move with this artfully crafted side of Anglo-pop."
