I love the Motors. Saw them when they came over after the first album
Dancing The Night Away is a killer track. Didn't Cheap Trick do it?
Approved is a little more song oriented. When Andy McMaster joined, he
brought in some of the Duck Deluxe sounds...
I got to meet a few of those guys, as they are all from the Hope and Anchor
pub scene. It's my pals Terry Williams and Martin Ace on the third album. I
remember sitting around with some friends here in Montana watching Much
Music. I said to these folks, that's my mates there on that vid. I don't
think they really believed me. But why would I make that up? I got a letter
from Ace a week later, which back me up.
There are a couple of great Motors B sides... Some live stuff and that
medley with Picturama.
I think part of that is a Sean Tyla composition.
This brings up the obvious question. Has the Bram Tchikovsky album ever
come out on cd?
If you're gonna chase the Motors records, you need this too, as well as the
Ducks stuff...And if you're really mad, you can try and find the Snakes 45
with the cover of Teenage Head...
