A second tier band really, hard working but always destined to be the (good) support band. Actually one of the best support bands I saw (when this album was current, possibly Rush) #TheMotors #np #NowPlaying #NowSpinning #vinyl #VinylCommunity #MusicSky

Despite looking like four plasterers, #TheMotors were purveyors of superior pub-rock-power-pop, as evident on two cracking singles (Airport and Grandstand theme soundalike "Forget About You"). Both feature on this, their second LP, released in '78. #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

#DancingTheNightAway by #TheMotors (1977)

A frenetic track by The Motors, a pub-rock band from London. I had the pleasure of sitting next to #NickGarvey at a church wedding and reception. Does singing hymns at a wedding mean I can claim I sung with him?

No matter what cover gimmick they tried with this 3rd release, musically it didn't hit the heights of the previous 2 imho.

THE MOTORS - 'Dancing the Night Away' single (1977)
As I started with John Peel and my introduction for '77 with his radio show, it's only right that I play out this evening with his favourite song from '77. This the longer 12" version of the #PubRock song.
