  • compared to them, pink floyd sounds just like pop... great.

  • Soft Machine opened my eyes to the possibilities. I was just a teenager when I heard "Out Bloody Rageous" I was blown away. At the time music press called them Jazz Fusion. They were not trying to be a Jazz band. Complex chords is not what they were about. They came at a time of tremendous innovation round the end of the 60's. Music from this era is second to none. Progressive rock showed what it was all about. People will never look back on the last 20 years with the same reverance as that era.

  • This makes me miss my Hohner Pianet! It's biggest weakness, lacking a sustain pedal, is also it's most defining characteristic. I just sold mine to buy the far superior Fender Rhodes, but I must say, I wish I still had the Pianet. If I did, i'd probably have it right on top of my Rhodes hooked up to a distortion pedal. That way, with the clean Rhodes bass sound, the distorted Pianet with it's lack of sustaining mechanism would take up the place of a guitar, sonically speaking.

  • @claudioaquino70 I was at that one , end of october 1970

  • @elviss I know what you mean. being about 16,17 when I saw them in late 60s the whole mystique and minutae of things like clothes body language and projected atmosphere were important. the atmospere and anticipation when they walked out and started at the third facelift concert jan 4th 70 was so good

  • I love the way that Hohner Pianet sounds! I love this band so much, but if I'm even in a group I'd play more compositional type music like Egg or Zappa.

  • one of few original and creative sax players this side of the Atlantic

  • 5:00 is I think the only time I have ever seen Mike Ratledge smile, ever

  • @mkfilly i'm a fan of Zappa but i'm a fan of Wyatt too.

  • Look! Robert Wyatt has his shirt on!

  • @mitharath Why compare tho?
