On the band's third studio release "Looking On", The Move found themselves moving forward past their hybrid Beatles/Byrds/Who psychedelic influences and more towards the harder Power Pop that both Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood would perfect on this album.
"Looking On" containing seven songs averaging six plus minutes was more in tune with the Progressive Rock movement of the early 70's with tracks like "What?" forming as a precursor to the band's development into the symphonic Art-rock band Electric Light Orchestra. Also on the album are the proto Heavy Metal tracks "When Alice Goes Back To The Farm" and "Brontosaurus" and Progressive Rockers in the title track and the prophetically influential "Open Up Said The World To The Door" which predates the innovative zaniness of bands like Split Enz, 10cc, Roxy Music and Queen.

Although ‘The Sun or the Moon’ band (not to be confused with the UK punk band of the same similar name) have their feet planted well within an idiom that could be likened to that of a space-rock.

Wolfgang Sawallisch was a German conductor and pianist, known for his refined interpretations of orchestral and opera repertoire. As a pianist, he was a revered accompanist and chamber musician, as well as an accomplished soloist. He was born in 1923 in Munich to Maria and Wilhelm Sawallisch, and had a brother named Werner who was older by five years. He started learning the piano at age five, and by the age of ten he had already decided that he wanted to be a concert pianist as an adult. Upon graduating high school in Munich in 1942, he studied piano with Wolfgang Ruoff until he was drafted into the military, where he served in France and Italy with the Wehrmacht, a branch of the Nazi armed forces. During the final stages of World War II in 1945 he was captured and held in a British POW camp.
