Despite success in Australia, England, and France, The Motels had yet to make it big in the U.S. At a time when record companies still gave bands time to "find their sound," the band had already released two albums and six singles without making a dent in Top 40 radio. Album three, "Apocalypso," was what the band hoped would finally break them out into the mainstream. With then lead guitarist Tim McGovern pretty much in control, and Val Garay engineering, the band went to work recording, re-recording, and dubbing what was hoped to be the breakthrough album. When it was finally submitted to Capitol Records it was pretty much DOA. American AM radio wanted polished, snazzy pop songs and FM radio wanted MOR; "Apocalypso" was neither.
The band has two choices basically: release the album without support from Capitol or re-record the entire album to cater to either the AM radio audience, the FM radio audience, or both. McGovern left the band, and the remaining members: Martha Davis, Marty Jourard, Michael Goodroe, and Brian Glasscock, along with Val Garay as producer forged on to create the 1982 "All Four One." With the exception of "Tragic Surf," everything was either re-recorded or shelved completely. Now, thirty years later, Omnivore Recordings has dug up the original recordings as well as added demos and alt versions for the CD release. Motels/Martha Davis fans will love this without a doubt, but anyone who appreciates excellent rock music from an era when experimentation was still alive will also love the tracks presented here. Thank you Omnivore for releasing this, and thank you Martha and the then band for recording some of the most dark and soul-inspiring songs rock music has ever known. This collection may have been "lost," but now it will never be "forgotten."
