I love Soft Machine! @reubent @Uber waltz, and the whole Canterbury scene really. Especially Caravan and Hatfield and the North. (Connections to Pink Floyd too. )
Uber is right they went through a lot of changes. Ok Musically I think the 8th album, “Bundles”, is the most interesting, It has Alan Holdsworth on guitar. I think he only joined thIs morphic collective For one album. @reubent you might actually like the later albums in that they’re way more jazz rock like I know you’re interested in. The very Different very early stuff featured this Interesting guy Robert Wyatt who was a real radical thinking and major leftist dude. His later poetic records are legendary in strange circles.
