THE MOTIVES (I'M WAITING SINGLE)

I couldn't find any info on this band. If you know anything please feel free to leave comment's. The track I'm waiting, kind of reminds me of the Prime Movers with swirly guitars. The rest of the record is a bit more on the pop side of things. All three tracks are worth a listen. I've always been a sucker for the sound of a Rickenbacker. I've played and loved mine for many years. This was recorded at Hit And Run Studios. If it's the one in the Maryland area then that might indicate where these guys were from.
