couldn't get enough of the mars volta today & this cover of 'memories' is sublime enough that i'm sure it'll be stuck in my brain for a good bit.

Kevin Ayers was born on 16 August 1944.
A key figure in the #CanterburyScene, founding member of #SoftMachine and a friend of #SydBarrett, he recorded several brilliant solo albums from 1969 on, with musicians including #BridgetStJohn, #RobertWyatt, #SteveHillage, #MikeOldfield and #Nico.

Soft Machine - 'Other Doors' (2023)
The new #SoftMachine album is simply superb. Atmospheric at times, at other moments is a rousing adventure. #JohnEtheridge, #TheoTravis, #JohnMarshall, #FredTheloniousBaker and #RoyBabbington in great form!

Fantastic live performance on the French music show Ce Soir On Danse, October 1967, with a heavily made up Kevin Ayers.

Minor spoiler: The third Zhongyu will be an homage to #SoftMachine It might not have been obvious previously, but the Softs were a huge influence on my music. The mid-70s period especially.
New #review today: "If the earlier #AmoebaSplit albums pushed all of the right buttons for you, then one has nothing to worry about, this one is definitely in the same league, with many of the same 60s-70s Euro/Brit #JazzRock references that made their earlier albums so compelling; one can easily hear the strong hints of #Supersister, #SoftMachine, and #Nucleus in their sound and approach..." #ExposeOnline #CanterburyScene http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/amoeba-split-quiet-euphoria-3.html

I like most Soft Machine albums but this jazz fusion album from 2018 is excellent.

New #review today: "At hand we have a show from October 26, 1973 at a club in Rotterdam called De Lantaren. It was recorded on a portable tape deck in the audience by Bert Boogaard, and it captures #SoftMachine with remarkable fidelity considering the technology used." #ExposeOnline #jazz #JazzRock #ProgRock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/soft-machine-the-dutch-lesson-2.html

Yes, there is an organ! I found it - Those who can read have an advantage - the interview provides this information
„Elton (Dean) contrasts with the rest of the band as the master jazz musician of the quartet; his own singular voice on alto sax and saxello takes flight. He also carves out inventive chord progressions and voicing on Fender Rhodes piano, over which Allan’s playing dances through fresh and transformative melodic tapestries.“
