We first met Trelane in 2267 AD whilst on a supply mission to the Beta VI colony.
Trelane was young, courageous, dressed in calf length moccasins – claimed to be the ex-property of one Peter Tork – a stupidly long-fringed cowboy jacket and ‘hip’ pants.
‘You cats dig The Monkees?’ Quired Trelane.
‘Of course,’ we replied.
‘Groovy,’ laughed Trelane, ‘I name you cats The Squires of Gothos. Got a harpsichord?’
‘No, sorry.’
‘Don’t worry, I’ll conjure one up – and here’s a studio. Now for Pete’s sake stop fooling around and let’s record!’
And so it was, and here is the result. Dig!!!
