Spirogyra Future Won'T Be Long:- The Albums 1971-1973 CD

Three CD set containing the three albums by Spirogyra released between 1971 and 1973. Spirogyra secured a contract with B&C Records in 1970. The band's impressive debut album, St Radigunds was issued in 1971 and featured guest drummer Dave Mattacks and Tony Cox on VCS3 Synthesiser. In 1972 the band's second album, Old Boot Wine, was released on the Pegasus label, a "progressive" imprint established by B&C. Spirogyra recorded their third album for Polydor. Despite achieving critical praise, Spirogyra failed to enjoy commercial success which ultimately led to their demise. The trio of albums the band recorded between 1971 and 1973 featured music of innovation and originality and are arguably beyond classification. They remain highly regarded and are sought after by collectors and aficionados of the Progressive era. This collection features four bonus tracks recorded during sessions for Old Boot Wine and the 1973 single release 'I Hear You're Going Somewhere (Joe Really)'.
