Presumably everyone here has already heard the Soft Machine "Backwards" release on Cuneiform records? Essential Canterbury fare. Just a heads up - in case you...
Greetings! I recently received an e-mail from Richard Sinclair's web site announcing upcoming gigs with the re-formed Hatfield & the North. Has anyone seen one...
Is that you Aymeric? Since this is "What's Rattlin'" I'll assume that it is. Well, thanks for setting this up and thanks for the invite to join, hope to see a...
I am sure I speak for everyone who's seen them in regretting that Dave Stewart Is not involved. Nevertheless I really enjoyed their London gig earlier this...
Hi Nick & all, Alex doesn't play REAL Hammond but Dave Stewart himself provided excellent "fuzz organ" samples that sound quite close to the "real thing". At...
Hey Aymeric, That is spitting hairs!!! I'd challenge any listener to spot the difference between a live Hammond and a well-sampled Hammond. Even and electric...
Anyone got this one yet: Soft Machine - British Tour 75. CD, £12.00 (MLP - MLPCD 10) The Canterbury prog-jazzers recorded in concert, originally for a live ...

re: Soft Machine - British Tour '75 It's quite excellent. Aymeric has a nice review of it on his site. _http://calyx.club.fr/index.html_...

Hello to the nucleus/germ of a growing group. Wondered where the bells and whistles of yahoo groups are eg Files, Members, Polls etc. A poll on favourite...

Steve, Can you tell us a bit more about these clips ? Did you recognize who the other members of the bands were ? Especially in the case of Soft Machine - who...
Hi, Got this from Jonathan a few days ago. Seems a good time/place to pass this on to you ! Kudos to Jonathan for taking some time from his busy schedule to ...
Hi all, Nucleus clip was B/W, it was only possible to spot Ian Carr, Karl Jenkins and John Marshall (who was also interviewed re: Karl Jenkins' ability to...

Earl, as far as I recall (32 tyears on), Centipede played at the big University auditorium. I did not really know what to expect, a "big" Soft perhaps....
