ALBUM REVIEW
Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce a newly re-mastered edition of the classic self-titled debut album by Progressive Rock trio SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION. Hailing from Poole in Dorset, the band featured GARY MARGETTS on guitar and vocals, TRISTAN MARGETTS on bass guitar, vocals and synthesiser and TONY BROCK on drums. Formed in 1971, the band was originally known as Transient Sand and was managed by local promoter John House, a friend of GREG LAKE of EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER. Through this association Lake offered to produce the band, now known as Spontaneous Combustion. With Lake’s interest confirmed a recording contract was arranged with Harvest in the closing months of 1971. The album Spontaneous Combustion appeared in January 1972 and over the coming years has become a sought after Prog Rock classic. This Esoteric Recordings reissue includes the bonus track LONELY SINGER, previously unreleased on CD. It has been newly re-mastered from the original master tapes and features a booklet that fully restores all original album artwork with a new essay.
