Mid-line reissue of this classic UK flower-psych album from 1968. It includes a high quality digital remaster of the original 11 LP tracks, five bonus tracks from the LP sessions (alternate takes and two new, previously unreleased tracks), three tracks by the pre-Tomorrow Aquarian Age (Twink & Junior, including the stunning "10,000 Words in a Cardboard Box," later revised on
Think Pink
) and four Keith West solo tracks (including Steve Howe). Tomorrow were: Keith West (vocals), Steve Howe, (guitar, pre-Yes), Junior (bass) and Twink (drums, pre-Pink Fairies). "Tomorrow's only album, a psych-pop classic released a few months too late in early 1968, is here expanded to double length. 'Auntie's Dress Shop,' 'Colonel Brown,' 'Real Life Permanent Dream' remain classic examples of English psych's high-water mark, while 'My White Bicycle' was simply an inexplicable flop. 'Now Your Time Has Come' suggest that Tomorrow could have gone on to greater things if they hadn't fallen apart so soon...a period delight fit to sit in-between
The Move
and
Piper At The Gates of Dawn

Early British psychedelia band
Tomorrow
, alongside
Soft Machine
and
Pink Floyd
, were the most relevant of the London-based underground sound circa 1967. They were formed by
Keith West
("Excerpt From A Teenage Opera" aka "Grocer Jack," which inspired
The Who
's
Tommy
),
John "Twink" Alder
on drums (who replaced
Viv Prince
in
The Pretty Things
and later formed
The Pink Fairies
) and
Steve Howe
, prodigal guitarist from the
Syndicats
on its way to form highly successful progs
Yes
. The group only managed to record one album before breaking up in 1968. That sole album is a solid effort, with quite a few first-rate tracks featuring backward guitar phasing ("My White Bicycle"), electric Sitar riffin'("Real Life Permanent Dream") and infections pre-hippie anthems ("Revolution"). It's a record full of gentle harmonies and hooky melodies with affectingly trippy lyrics. A great psych pop album from one of the most fascinating eras in music history. Officially available for the first time with its original artwork and tracklist sequence. On 180 gram vinyl.
