The Exponents "Once Bitten, Twice Bitten" Compilation ed. 1995

...Their prayers were answered from an unlikely quarter in 1990. Adam Holt, who they'd met as the guitarist in Auckland's Sons in Jeopardy, was now working for PolyGram Records. He heard the London demos and proposed a contract to Jones, who had returned to New Zealand. His boss, Grenville Turner flew to London to reiterate the offer to Gent. The band (less Sheehan, who stayed in London and formed The Starlings) came back and reunited. Harralambi was welcomed back to the fold...
...Then, in one of the bad decisions that bands can make (ask Shihad), the Dance Exponents changed their name to Amplifier. Crowds for a national tour reflected the fact that no one knew who the hell they were. Their name was swiftly changed (almost) back to The Exponents.
As the expats had in London, local fans welcomed the band back as treasured old friends. Moreover, Luck had written a batch of new songs that would give the band the biggest hits of its career. The album Something Beginning With C topped the charts and eventually went five times platinum. Three singles 'Why Does Love Do This To Me?', 'Who Loves Who The Most?’ and 'Whatever Happened to Tracey?' went Top 10. (It was tempting to suppose that New Zealanders liked their pop songs framed as questions.)...to be continued... - audioculture
