The story of Tractor began in Rochdale, Lancashire in 1966, when guitarist/vocalist Jim Milne, drummer Steve Clayton, bassist Mick 'Slim' Batsch and vocalist Alan Burgess formed a beat group called The Way We Live. By the late sixties, however, the band had slimmed to a duo with only Milne and Clayton, and they, with the help of local engineer John Brierly, recorded a demo tape which they sent off to the nation's record companies. One recipient was Dandelion Records, the label set up by Radio 1 DJ John Peel and his manager Clive Selwood. Not believing the songs had only been recorded by two people, they promptly signed the 'band' and put them in a London studio. Two days later they presented Peel and Selwood with their debut album, "A Candle For Judith" (DAN 8004). Released in January 1971 and named after Clayton's girlfriend, the album is now the rarest of all the Dandelion label's
