Spring were a Leicester-based British progressive rock band that represented the early 1970s progressive rock movement. A one-shot band, it recorded only one album in its career, a self-titled LP released in 1971. The reissue includes three bonus cuts ("Fool's Gold", "Hendre Mews" and "A Word Full of Whispers") that were from sessions of a never-completed second album from 1972. Spring's music is notable for the use of the mellotron, with three of the its five members credited with playing that instrument on the album. Pat Moran (vocals), Ray Martinez (guitars), Kips Brown (keyboards), Picque Withers (Pick Withers) (drums), Adrian Maloney (bass).
