Love Tractor

Love Tractor (1980–2002) was a band from Athens, Georgia founded in spring 1980 by guitarists Mark Cline and Mike Richmond. Like The B-52's, Pylon and R.E.M., Love Tractor was considered by critics to be one of the founders of the Athens, Georgia alternative rock scene. Love Tractor toured extensively and recorded five critically acclaimed albums during the 1980s—and was particularly known for their instrumental rock.

After a return to the public eye in the late '90s, Love Tractor released 2001's The Sky At Night. The group disbanded in 2002.
