Soft Machine - Mousetrap / Noisette / Backwards / Mousetrap (Reprise) / Esther's Nose Job

[@Daniel-iy8kt]

Ich empfinde die Musik der Soft Machine als Stimmungen und Klangfarben. Harmonien,Disharmonien Interferenzen Ekstasen. Und trotzdem kann ich mich wunderbar entspannen und so richtig in die Klangwelt eintauchen und dabei gut einschlafen. ❤

[@Mr223P]

Backwards... such a beautiful composition from Mr Ratledge.

[@jorgegonzalez-larramendi5491]

Music for The End of Humanity.. it says. "We tried" David Sinclair hit orbit with in For Girls, on his Davoli synth..... there is even Hugh Hopper bass versions, where Hugh seems to have been embarrassed by its beauty. Here it's a trombone. ❤❤

Soft Machine and the heavy friends! I love this sound!🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@darrenseder5923]

Badass fucking tunes. Soft machine is the right stuff right now!!! Now is always. A mark is casted into all soulful resonated "those ones"

[@michaelatkinson8583]

Pure heaven. I need more of this stuff.

[@dantean]

Anytime you can hear the septet performing together it is special.

Esatto.

[@kactus_3008]

Verry good stuff! Thanks!👍

[@forgottengrooves6073]

These guys should've been much more successful, IMHO. Great songs and amazing musicianship...

[@laredolenny682]

@Forgotten Grooves - Inside of Triple Echo, the record set on Soft Machine, is a Family Tree of Bands that grew out of Soft Machine. Mostly making up the Canterbury Scene. It's around 120 splinter groups like, Matching Mole, Caravan, Hatfield and The North, National Health, Gong, Gilgamesh...It's all as beautiful and as intricate as this track you heard here. Check it all out, please. Be well.

total pioneers

"Inglan' is a bitch/ there's no escapin' it" lkj. A miracle this magnetic tape DID NOT GET ERASED. probably an engineer's surreptitious copy

[@jorgegonzalez-larramendi5491]

​@laredolenny682 try the JAHpanese *morso-t-heap* "morning machine & soft musume ❤❤ see my review in amamamazón

[@luisangulo5332]

This is genuinely great

[@graziadicolpo]

Fluttuante , lisergico e meraviglioso insieme!

[@samarthgrover1996]

2:13 definitely see how Ratledge influenced Dave Stewart. Egg's "I will be absorbed" is so similar to this

[@Rena2star]

I've finally found it, the sounds I've been looking for. Goddamn.

[@saulaac2971]

"If I ever find What I'm looking for I will be absorbed And never write again..." One of my favourite songs by Mont Campbell ;)

[@kactus_3008]

2nd period of the band is quite interesting also.

[@rainerkrause34]

The old John Walter / John Peel tapes for programme top gear. First released on Soft Machine´s retrospective 3 LP set `triple echo` (harvest records, 1977). The first time I was introduced to the so called `canterbury scene` due to Pete Frame´s splendid hand drawn family tree within the LP box.

[@laredolenny682]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS> I got my copy from Bleeker Bob's in Manhattan NYC. He would ask what you wanted and go to Europe on a buying spree. That Family Tree is incredible. AND, YOU are the only other person I ever heard mention it. And, I'm 63 now. Congrats. You know the real deal. All the good stuff. Be blessed.

[@rainerkrause34]

@@laredolenny682 Thank you for the nice reply. I don´t know if you are familar with all the rock family tree books that Pete Frame draw between (c) 1979 and (c) 2011. I think there are 5 now...To my opinion a ´must have´ for every culture book library. May be, some aren´t available no more (?)Ask Mrs. google if you are interessted in it.. I also own an extremly rare copy from a private drawn continuation by the mentioned Canterbury scene tree, as four times as large and complex. And it goes up to 1990.The man who draw it was Mr. Osamu Sakamoto from Japan. In the 1990s I wrote for a german Canterbury scene fanzine (to get copies from it today = almost impossible) and thus was lucky to get one. Fancy how the canterbury scene family tree would look like in 2021 !! Please accept my unpolished english.Thanks again and take care...

[@laredolenny682]

@@rainerkrause34 - WOW. Just, WOW. Thank you for replying. THAT is a great story. No, I know nothing except the Triple Echo family tree. I will definitely look that up and all you mentioned. Language is all relative. I'm listening to PFM at the moment, ha! Be well. Thank you. Peace.

[@rainerkrause34]

@@laredolenny682 Yes, the first five PFM albums = vintage prog rock gems !

[@ICH_SAGS_DANN_MAL_SO]

@@rainerkrause34 Hallo - muß mal nachsehen, aber ich glaube, das der Melody Maker so um 1974 schon einen Canterbury Family Tree veröffentlichte...

My BBC Peel Sessiond 2 cd set has these two tracks presented as two separate tracks in reverse order.
