Description
Before they were The Specials, before 2 Tone, before the movement that changed British music forever — they were The Coventry Automatics. In 1978, they entered the studio to record demos in search of a record deal. It never came. Instead, they renamed themselves, founded their own label, and made history. "Dawning Of A New Era" collects these extraordinary pre-Specials demos, officially reissued for the 40th anniversary of the recordings. Hear embryonic versions of tracks that would define their debut album, plus three previously unreleased songs — "Wake Up", "Look But Don't Touch" and "Jay Walker" — dropped before they ever reached an official release. Essential archaeology for every Specials devotee, 2 Tone collector, and ska enthusiast. This is where it all began. New vinyl. Available now at Copasetic Mailorder.
