Now available in a 4CD clamshell boxed set!\n\n\n\nThe concerts were part of an art exhibition by the Boyle Family, a British art group. It was special in that a film of its member, Mark Boyle, was projected during the soft machine performance. More importantly, the tapes on which both concerts were recorded have been preserved, and they are in excellent shape. These are wonderful live recordings that offer a glimpse into how the sound changed dramatically from one night to the next.\n\n\n\nThis is the first time that two consecutive nights of live recordings by one of Soft Machine's most classic quartets have been released in their entirety, although two sets from the second night (February 28, 1971) have been previously released. The first night (February 27, 1971) has never been released before.The sound balance between the instruments on the original tape has been slightly improved, and the band sounds as if they are playing right in front of you, giving you a realistic soft machine sound.\n\n\n\nIn the words of the late Michael King, who released Sunday concert on his own Reel Recordings label in 2009,\n\nIn the words of the late Michael King, who released Sunday concert on his own Reel Recordings label in 2009, \"This is clearly the best recording of a classical soft-machine quartet ever made on tape.\n\n\n\nThis is a rare and important live recording for Soft Machine fans and Canterbury fans alike.\n\n\n\nElton Dean: alto sax, saxello, Hohner pianet\n\nHugh Hopper: bass\n\nMike Rutledge: Hohner pianet, Lowrey Holiday Deluxe organ, Fender Rhodes\n\nRobert Wyatt:drums, vocals\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Facelift2.Virtually3.Slightly All the Time4.Fletcher's Blemish1.Neo-Caliban Grides2.Out-Bloody-Rageous3.Vocal Improvisation4.Eamonn Andrews5.All White6.Kings and Queens7.Teeth8.Pigling Bland1.Facelift2.Virtually3.Slightly All the Time4.Fletcher's Blemish1.Neo-Caliban Grides2.Out-Bloody-Rageous3.Vocal Improvisation4.Eamonn Andrews5.All White6.Kings and Queens7.Teeth8.Pigling Bland9.Slightly All the Time [Encore]\u003cbr\u003e1.Facelift\u003cbr\u003e2.Virtually\u003cbr\u003e3.Slightly All the Time\u003cbr\u003e4.Fletcher's Blemish\u003cbr\u003e1.Neo-Caliban Grides\u003cbr\u003e2.Out-Bloody-Rageous\u003cbr\u003e3.Vocal Improvisation\u003cbr\u003e4.Eamonn Andrews\u003cbr\u003e5.All White\u003cbr\u003e6.Kings and Queens\u003cbr\u003e7.Teeth\u003cbr\u003e8.Pigling Bland\u003cbr\u003e1.Facelift\u003cbr\u003e2.Virtually\u003cbr\u003e3.Slightly All the Time\u003cbr\u003e4.Fletcher's Blemish\u003cbr\u003e1.Neo-Caliban Grides\u003cbr\u003e2.Out-Bloody-Rageous\u003cbr\u003e3.Vocal Improvisation\u003cbr\u003e4.Eamonn Andrews\u003cbr\u003e5.All White\u003cbr\u003e6.Kings and Queens\u003cbr\u003e7.Teeth\u003cbr\u003e8.Pigling Bland\u003cbr\u003e9.Slightly All the Time [Encore]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cuneiform Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51947960074529,"sku":"45775053028","price":5700.0,"currency_code":"PHP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/45775053028.jpg?v=1761404676","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ph\/products\/45775053028","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
