The Motors son conocidos sobre todo por su éxito de 1978 Airport. Formado en Londres en 1977, el grupo estaba compuesto por los antiguos miembros de Ducks Deluxe Nick Garvey (guitarra, bajo, voz) y Andy McMaster (teclados, voz) y Bram Tchaikovsky (guitarra) y Ricky Slaughter (Richard Wernham, batería). Fichados en el Marque Club y durante una sesión para John Peel en Radio 1, el grupo firmó con Virgin y grabó un primer álbum en la encrucijada del pub rock y el power pop, titulado 1 (1977), que incluía "Dancing the Night Away" (nº 42). El éxito inicial del álbum fue seguido por el sencillo de pub rock/new wave "Airport", publicado el 19 de mayo de 1978 y que alcanzó las listas de éxitos en toda Europa (nº 4 en el Reino Unido). Impulsó las ventas del álbum Approved by the Motors (nº 60) y del siguiente sencillo "Forget About You" (nº 13). La marcha de Tchaikovsky y Wernham tras un concierto en el Festival de Reading, que resultó ser el último de la banda, dio paso a otra formación con Martin Ace y Terry Williams para el tercer álbum Tennement Steps (1980) y su sencillo principal "Love and Loneliness " (nº 58). Al mismo tiempo se anunció el fin de la banda, que nunca volvió a formarse.
