The Soft Machine - Slightly All the Time (2/2)

[DJDesikari]

This music is just....amazing. I haven't heard anything like this in....I've never heard anything like this....I wonder, who was the one person who disliked this? Hm, no matter, their loss.

6:10 starts my new life

[deekbo74]

so very good

[glenstegner]

The theme from 3:24 is called "Backwards" written by Ratledge, first appearing on record here, and later included in the Caravan song L'Auberge du Sanglier. I don't know if it was a Wilde Flowers piece but I doubt it because it's jazzy and reflects Ratledge's output from late 69 onward.

[Harald136]

is that possible that the theme from 3:24 is from The Wilde Flowers because it's also used in Caravan's song ``A Hunt We Shall Go``

[ArdorBias]

Excellence.

[2short2q]

Sweet soul music. Just different

[skateNappreciate]

[OneWOneL]

[pisto2]

It is a pity it had to be split in two parts, and in such a great passage...

lock me inside this track and make me forget I ever walked the earth...

[fathunter]

tenemos roads by national health- is good [understatement] caravan ended a track with the music at 3.22[i believe it was a hopper tune]

[Adamboms]

@fathunter L' Auberge du Sanglier/ A Hunting We Shall Go is the Caravan song your thinking of, they used that melody in the mid section though not the end

[icketypickety]

awesome ,can anyone recommend similar trippy bands...

[novaflo339]

Top shelf!

[2short2q]

I wonder if even these guys knew how far ahead of the curve of musical norms they were. Brilliant. Will always be a favorite.

[Discgallerynow1]

great track-thanks for posting

[PerryLogan]

One of the greatest pieces I've ever heard.

[767fife]

Pompeii is far, far greater than dark side. I personally prefer Ummagumma.

[triplettam]

This "rock band" is better than most of the great jazz icons. The arrangements are beyond incredible.

[camelspottergr]

6:10 Hopper (RIP) plays smoe outstanding bass lines!!!!! and the solo from mr Dean is amazing! not to mention the closing of the track.... it is really a MASTERPIECE!!!!!

[georgeneuman]
