A deluxe 2 CD remastered anthology of the legendary psychedelic, underground and Eastern influenced rock band Quintessence who came together in the Ladbroke Grove area of London in 1969. The band comprised Australians Phil ‘Shiva’ Jones (vocals, keyboards), Ron ‘Raja Ram’ Rothfield (flute) along with Allan Mostert (lead guitar), Richard ‘Shambhu Babaji’ Vaughan (bass), Dave ‘Maha Dev’ Codling (rhythm guitar) and Jeremy ‘Jake’ Milton (drums). Within months of their formation the Eastern influenced rock music of Quintessence had earned the band a dedicated following and they were signed by Chris Blackwell to Island Records. Over the next three years the band would record three classic albums for the label – ‘In Blissful Company’, ‘Quintessence’ and ‘Dive Deep’ – along with the classic single version of one of their best known tracks, ‘Notting Hill Gate’. The material Quintessence recorded during this period, mostly produced by John Barham, who would also work with George Harrison on his ‘All Things Must Pass’ album, earned them admiration from such luminaries as Pete Townshend of The Who (who attended Quintessence concerts) and Jim Morrison of The Doors.
