Recorded in 1978 under their original name, The Coventry Automatics, these demo sessions feature the classic lineup including Jerry Dammers, Terry Hall, and Neville Staple honing their unique blend of Jamaican ska and British punk. While the production is raw compared to their legendary debut, the energy is undeniable. Many of these tracks, such as Too Much Too Young, Concrete Jungle, and Little Bitch, would go on to be re-recorded as definitive genre anthems. This record is an essential missing link for any fan of the 2-Tone movement, offering a gritty, unfiltered look at the birth of a legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWake Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNite Club\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock \u0026amp; Roll Nightmare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook But Don't Touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcrete Jungle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's Up To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStupid Marriage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Much Too Young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Bitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJay Walker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDawning Of A New Era\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlank Expression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFans may like\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Specials, The Selecter, The Beat, Madness, and Bad Manners\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist: THE COVENTRY AUTOMATICS (Pre-The Specials).\u003cbr\u003eTitle: Dawning Of A New Era.\u003cbr\u003eFormat: 12\" Vinyl LP (Standard Black \/ Reissue).\u003cbr\u003eArtist's country of origin: UK (Coventry).\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Ska \/ 2-Tone \/ Punk Rock.\u003cbr\u003eOriginal year of release: 1993 (Recorded 1978).\u003cbr\u003eThis pressing released: 2010s 2026 (Various Reissues).\u003cbr\u003eTotal running time: Approx.\u003cbr\u003e34:00.\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Various (Receiver Records \/ Radiation Reissues).\u003cbr\u003eRecorded At: Horizon Studios, Coventry (1978).\u003cbr\u003eProduced By: The Coventry Automatics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Disrupt Records Distro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50982265225501,"sku":"GDR20261149","price":46.96,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/1129\/9869\/files\/THE_COVENTRY_AUTOMATICS_Dawning_Of_A_New_Era_Vinyl_LP_in_Australia_Global_Disrupt.jpg?v=1773275626","url":"https:\/\/www.globaldisruptrecords.com.au\/products\/the-coventry-automatics-dawning-of-a-new-era-vinyl-lp","provider":"Global Disrupt Records Distro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
