Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The Concert as Well as Being an Interesting One with Regards the Line Up. Is also Interesting for the Arrangements of Some of the Key Soft Machine Pieces that Are Different Due to the Interaction Between the Five Individuals. Although Only a Brief Interlude in the Life of this Very Innovative Band, We Are Fortunate to have a Good Example of What in Retrospect was a Transitory Phase, but Nevertheless an Important Part of Soft Machine's Evolution. As with Other Recent Soft Machine Live Recordings for Voiceprint this Album Has Been Re Mastered for Release by Brian Hopper who Himself was Briefly a Member of Soft Machine and Along with Brother Hugh Hopper was a Founder of the Legendary Canterbury Band the Wilde Flowers from which Soft Machine Originally Sprang. This Double Album also Includes Extensive Sleeve Notes Written by Brian on the Recording of this Live Album from One of the Canterbury Scene's Major Artists.

5 out of 5 stars sounds very good to my ears..........2005-10-18

This must have been an amazing concert, and the sound is really very good for what I believe was an amateur recording. You may not want this if you are an audiophile and insist on studio sound quality, but for anyone else it should prove very enjoyable.

Highly recommended to all SM fans, not merely completists!

2 out of 5 stars bad recording quality.......2005-07-26

Not sure if this disk delivers anything such albums as noisette or backwards don't from the standpoint of music, but the recording quality is pretty bad by my standards.
I read that the voiceprint soft machine recordings are pretty crabby, so I always steered clear from them. However, I also read somewhere that this one is better than most, so I decided to give it a chance.
I couldn't really sit thru the whole thing...and just to let the reader understand where I am coming from - I do have realistic expectations from never before released live archives from 30-something years ago. For example "live in paris" , while mono and not top notch quality, is quite enjoyable in my opinion.
Had I known what I was getting, I would never have paid $23 for this CD. Noisette is much better and it is cheaper as well. To say even more, for some reason voiceprint cd's tend to generally be more expensive than those from cuneiform. I wonder why.

That said, I certainly recommend this disk to those who are desperate to hear a different variation of noisette.
