Hi all, Usual shameless self-promotion, except that anyone who hasn't picked up Soft Machine Legacy's studio disc really ought to now. Here's the review:...

Just bought "Chansons" by John Greaves (which I must say in passing is about non-Canterbury as you can get despite the presence of JG and Robert Wyatt.) What...
Hello! Can anyone out there tell me where I might find the English translation to Soft Machines' "DADA WAS HERE" ??? Thanx Frederic [In Graham Bennett's book ?...
Hi, Just interfering in the discussion to give some maybe an unorthodox view of this record. I must say that I'm normally not what one would call a John...
Thanks, I wondered if it was just the same bonus tracks as I'd never heard of others floating around. Really enjoyed listening to Middle earth last night -...
Well, if no one else is going to answer, I'll throw my tonsils in: Unfortunately most of Greaves's stuff with him as leader consists of songs and very few...
One of the groups recommended to me on Pandora due to the sound of Soft Machine (organ with vocals) was Pit er Pat on Thrill Jockey. They have a new one out on...
If anyone is interested the latest issue of Mojo has a Pip Pyle obituary by Daevid Allen. There is also a feature called "How to buy Gong" which lists the...
Many thanks for that Rob! I've just been to Thrill Jockey's page and had a listen - it's pretty good stuff and not like anyone else in particular - there's a...

... Glad you liked it Nick. Ultimately, I think it's better to run a disclaimer and have people be pleasantly suprised than NOT run a disclaimer and have...
Hello all I've been checking out the Chris Spedding website <http://www.chrisspedding.com> and there are some interesting comments and references for us...
... And I agree with you. I have listened carefully to both discs, and you're right ! They're 2 different versions of "Calyx"... although they both are "live",...

... And yes, aren't they wrong about it being the first Electric Prom - didn't Soft Machine play at one such in the early 70's? Richard...
