sf 1& 2 is the best. got 9 kev ayres albums and got to werk w/ him. best buzz
there was - here. its closed now though. have you got the cd or vinyl nothing can stop us? "ship building" and "memories of you" are on the vinyl edition which makes it a bit better i think, although the Stalingrad poem isnt on it. I love "at last i am free" - one of his best tunes.
i got some of the 7inches on ebay - theyre quite cheap and cool. the shipbuilding one has a lovely foldout sleeve.
there was a miserable turn out for that poll
i never really got into SM - too many organ solos and endless jazzy prog jamming that gets a bit tiresome... same with matching mole although they have some deadly tunes too. robert wyatt is amazing of course.
exactly the same, and was only yesterday thinking of spinning 2 after about a decade to see if it lands. Will report back....i've had 1 and 2 sitting on the shelf for about a decade now. i pull them out now and then and give them a try. they certainly have their great moments, but equally they have other moments that i'm really not into.
when this thread started I think the first two Soft Machine albums (prior to reissue in 2009)
were out of print for years in the UK.
their early records really let them down - a bit flat sounding.
there's some amazing footage of them about 1967 or so on a Dutch TV show
called Hoopla (sic ?) the same episode also features Zappa and The Mothers
with the programme also being the first time Dutch TV showed a nude woman.
these are from Dutch broadcast:
also 1967 w/ Kevin. French TV maybe ?
I also have 4 and 5 one one CD which is fine but nothing to worry Miles Davis.
whatever happened to Mike Ratledge ?
