Poster promoting a single issued by Parlophone\n1967\nPublished by Osiris Agency Ltd.\nScreenprint\nE.1701-1991\n\nCommissioned by the manager of Tomorrow, Hapshash designed this image fro Tomorrow's first single in the back room of the Indica bookshop.  The White Bicycle was a reference to the Amsterdam Provos' establishment of a free method of transport around the city in the form of white bicycles which could be used by anyone.  <i>IT</i> reported how EMI would not allow the use of this image to advertise the record because of the nude breasts of the female figure.\nTomorrow were also memorable to the Underground for playing on the night of the Rolling Stones' bust when spontaneously the UFO crowd decided to picket the offices of <i>The News of the World</i>, who were thought to be behind the bust.  After the march, where police dogs had been unleashed, the crowd returned to UFO and Tomorrow gave one of their best performances to a packed audience.  In general, the crowd at UFO encouraged some of the band's wildest and most adventurous improvisations.\"\n\nText by Julia Bigham","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null}}],"partNumbers":["E.1701-1991"],"accessionNumberNum":"1701","accessionNumberPrefix":"E","accessionYear":1991,"otherNumbers":[{"type":{"text":"","id":""},"number":"OA102"}],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-06-06","recordCreationDate":"2006-11-13","availableToBook":false}}
