There are no words that can describe this particular incarnation of Soft Machine that would in any way do them justice. After hearing 'Third' over forty years ago I remain in awe............
@Alun53 "Above all things, Jesuits are 'confessors'. Their services unto the royalty were urged as a 'need', as they became assigned to hear the confessions of the aristocrats, emperors, kings, queens, princes, princesses, ['royal'] mistresses, those in every level of government -- they all revealed their secret plans, their intimate sins, their inner-most thoughts, as their lives became virtually an open book to the Jesuits.
Apparently they've reversed the solos for "Slightly/Noisette" encore, usually it's organ solo first then alto later, but here Elton gets the first solo.
As per "nothing", could it be possible that Wyatt is taking a dig at the band for going beyond his idea of pop music into this jazz-cum-tricky signatures thing?

@KingCrimson776 "In the agreement to rescue Rome [i.e., the Roman Catholic Church's hierarchy] from the predicament of losing its world control to Protestantism, and to preserve the spiritual and temporal supremacy which the popes [had] 'usurped' during the Middle Ages, Rome now 'sold' the [Roman Catholic] Church to the Society of Jesus [i.e., the Jesuits]; in essence the popes surrendered themselves into their hands."
