Tomorrow – TOMORROW***

My White Bicycle/Colonel Brown/Real Life Permanent Dream/Shy Boy/Revolution/The Incredible Journey Of Timothy Chase/Auntie Mary’s Dress Shop/Strawberry Fields Forever/Three Jolly Little Dwarfs/Now Your Time Has Come/Hallucinations

Self titled sole album from the London progressive group Tomorrow. More influential than commercial, guitarist Steve Howe would later find fame with Yes. My White Bicycle reached the UK top twenty when covered by Nazareth, and vocalist Keith West had a huge hit with Excerpt From A Teenage Opera.

"This remains one of my more satisfying psychedelic album purchases. Tomorrow were one of the leading London underground sixties psychedelic bands.”

“The music is typical British 1960s psychedelic style. Most of the songs are catchy and melodic, featuring great guitar work by Steve Howe. Their career as a band was more or less spoiled by the success of singer Keith West as a solo artist with his Teenage Opera project.”

“Tomorrow left us with an album which captures the mood of 1967/68 in London perfectly, in that it is ever so jolly and marvellously trippy. In time it must surely rank alongside the great British albums from the period.”

“Tomorrow were highly accomplished musicians with a strong grasp on psychedelic music. They were inventive, professional songwriters. Every track is a gem that will be loved by anybody who appreciates good music of any genre.”

“A surprisingly fresh dose of late 1960s rock from the psychedelic slipstream. The titles and lyrics reveal a band wallowing in a world of British nostalgia laced with something exotic. Songs of colonels and aunties sit alongside dreams, hallucinations and revolution. Musically though it doesn't travel back to the music hall. Instead, Steve Howe's inventive, crunchy, pre-Yes guitar colours the sound behind some fine melodies and Keith West's animated vocal delivery.”

"A typically British piece of psychedelic rock. Steve Howe's guitar playing is inventive, and the three musicians gel together pretty fine. Also, most of this is well produced. On the downside, these three guys don't really seem to have any ideas of their own. It's all Beatles based, with touches of The Who, Pink Floyd, Cream, Kinks and whatever else was in vogue at the time.”
