"Very different from his other albums, but quite fulfilling. Track 9 "Stately", alone, is worth the purchase of this album. A must for B.C. fans. His supreme control of emotional content in his music keeps us longing for more. Billy, keep them coming, but improve the availability of your cds. I've been trying to get PUSH from amazon.ca for the past few months and the order keeps getting delayed."
Excellent opera

"Billy is the best musician i ever listened. He uses acoustic sound with synthetisers. you can't find better. Go Billy go on in this way."
It's no Astradyne!

"I've been a huge Ultravox fan since 1979 (geez, that long ago!) and so I'm very familiar with Billy Currie, and awed by his keyboard skill. There was no one else doing anything like him. He stood out, and the music was superb. I grew up an Ultravox / Billy Currie tragic!
Unfortunately, I've found on the three solo albums, and one rehash of Ultravox (post Ure , Cann and Cross) with the latest being Still Movements, that if you are looking for captivating Electronic rock, or sounds along those of other early projects Billie worked on, forget it. Still Movements is ok playing in the back ground, but I've listened to it three times in the car, and it just doesn't do it for me. Very stayed, clinical, and too many similar piano type intros.
No gut wrenching synth rock or emotional string tracks on it at all, and all tracks far too forgettable. I don't know the name of any.
Of course, the previous two reviewers loved it, so just goes to show that you may like it. Just don't reminisce for the old Hal yean days of the 80s.
Unfortunately, this will be my last Billy Currie album.
Farwell old friend.
Ken.
