"I never argue with anyone about the death penalty, politics, their football team or God. They are the things nobody changes their minds on, so it's a waste of time."

Simon Napier-Bell


The music that matters from Britain during the sixties; a lost time when the British sports car ruled, BOAC traversed the Empire, and manners were largely adhered to.

The World is a Trapezium - Motives - Tom Winter 1967

It with great gratitude to Tom Winter and the Motives that I bring you what is most probably the rarest single (well EP really) from the psychedelic era.

Recorded at Telstar Studios in Weert, Holland, as a demo to promote the band, this EP contains 4 tracks revealing the band's quality musicianship and extraordinary song-writing of Tom Winter.

Stupendous find..very mellow songs with lucid guitar runs. Good to read the story on SFA.

Yet another hopelessly rare record. Great stuff Sir Henry.

Thank you Expo. I was incredibly fortunate in making contact with Tom Winter who made this EP a gift to me. It is truly an obscurity, and a wonderful one at that.

Sir Henry

There was a very limited CDR reissue of the EP, made available for Sweet Floral Albion subscribers.Not sure how many readers went for it.

Thank you Scott for that information. It would certainly be beneficial to hear the songs with audible clarity.
