And let's not forget the Van Der Graaf Generator reunion! Down here in New Zealand we'll never get to see this in the flesh, but I've heard several live boots...
Saw them in Liverpool. It was quite stunning to hear this music come alive in the concert hall, it sounded massive. Yes, they may have lacked a little youthful...
Hello : this past week I played a lot of Soft Machine, and Robert Wyatt was the trigger for this with the Drury Lane release. I started with Two and through...

... That's quite a coincidence, as it took me three years to be able to get into and enjoy SM 2. I had it, sold it a few years ago, and just received it in the...

Hello : Thanks for the tip on Hugh Hopper in Clear Frame. May I ask when do they archive the show ? As I missed it here in America. Speaking of Hugh, today I...
Whilst on the subject of Delivery, perhaps somebody can throw some light on a gig that I saw by accident in the Autumn of 1972 (I think). One late autumnal...
