Cosmic
Energy - Live At San Pancras 1970 is one of two complementary new
releases from Hux Records, comprising 3 ½ hours of previously unreleased
material licensed from the Island Records archive.
Quintessence recorded five albums (for Island and RCA) between
1969-73 - all five are currently available on CD.
This is the first ever 'new' Quintessence material unearthed - and
doubles at one stroke the quantity of vintage Quintessence music
available.
Sound quality - recorded and preserved on 16-track multitracks - is
extraordinary.
Mastered by Cormac O'Kane, responsible for the sound on
Sanctuary/Universal's widely acclaimed Pentangle box set and for
numerous BBC soundtracks.
36 page full colour booklets designed by Mark Case, award-winning
graphic designer.
Includes 18,000 word group history and chronology from music biographer
Colin Harper.
Released with the blessing and co-operation of former group members Phil
'Shiva' Jones and Dave 'Maha Dev' Codling.
A hugely acclaimed live act at the time, this is the first time a full
Quintessence live album (let alone two) has ever been released.
