Tomorrow - 1967




Tomorrow were a psychedelic 60s band (obviously) also known as ''The in crowd'' and before that as ''Four plus one''. They were the among the first psychedelic bands in England along with Pink Floyd and Soft Machine. They recorded 2 albums, Tomorrow, 1968 and 50 minute Technicolor dream, 1998.

Tomorrow, 1968 Song listing :

Side one

  1. "My White Bicycle"* (Keith Hopkins, Ken Burgess) – 3:17
  2. "Colonel Brown"* (Hopkins, Burgess) – 2:51
  3. "Real Life Permanent Dream" (Hopkins) – 3:15
  4. "Shy Boy"* (Hopkins, Burgess) – 2:26
  5. "Revolution"* (Hopkins, Steve Howe) – 3:48

[edit]Side two                                                                 (info taken from wikipedia)

  1. "The Incredible Journey of Timothy Chase" (Hopkins) – 3:17
  2. "Auntie Mary's Dress Shop"* (Hopkins, Burgess) – 2:44
  3. "Strawberry Fields Forever" (John Lennon, Paul McCartney) – 3:58
  4. "Three Jolly Little Dwarfs"* (Hopkins, Burgess) – 2:26
  5. "Now Your Time Has Come" (Hopkins) – 4:51
  6. "Hallucinations"* (Hopkins, Burgess) – 2:37

Best song for me, in this album, is Hallucinations. Just simply because it's awesome. Also the vocals are so ''clear'', good audio sound. Cool guitar playing by the famous Steve Howe (from Yes). It just sucks that all of their songs don't last longer.


50 minute Technicolor dream, 1998, track listing :

  1. "Am I Glad to See You"
  2. "Blow Up"
  3. "Caught in a Web"
  4. "Revolution"
  5. "Why"
  6. "Real Life Permanent Dream"
  7. "Three Jolly Little Dwarfs"
  8. "Revolution"
  9. "Caught in a Web" (live)
  10. "Shotgun & the Duck" (live)
  11. "My White Bicycle" (live)
  12. "Real Life Permanent Dream" (live)
  13. "Revolution" (live)
  14. "Why" (live)
  15. "Mr Rainbow" (live)
  16. "Strawberry Fields Forever" (live)

Now, I did not listen to this album, unfortunately, But basically, this is a compilation of mostly previously unreleased recordings.


So my final thoughts of this band is, It feels fresh and it's awesome, even if it's from 1967. If you  have some friends that you want to get them to listen psychedelic, I recommend this band because it's an easy to listen to psychedelic band, not all psych bands are easy to listen to.
