Retrieved 12 July 2014〕 He then moved on to the Sombreros who later changed their name to Sight & Sound and moved in a more psychedelic direction.〔 He began collaborating with Mike Sheridan as a songwriting partnership.〔 In 1969 he joined The Move, staying with the group for two years including an unsuccessful tour of the United States.〔 Price also contributed bass tracks to the early sessions for the debut album of ELO, but for reasons unclear, none of his bass parts ended up used in the final mix to the album when it was released in 1971. After leaving The Move he signed a contract with Gemini Records, and with Sheridan recorded the album ''This Is To Certify: Gemini Anthology'', released around 1970.〔〔Eder, Bruce "(''This Is To Certify: Gemini Anthology'' Review )", Allmusic.
