THE SOFT MACHINE

Work totally indebted to the experimental spirit that surrounded the bands of that time: from its free flow - without an apparent structure -, where the band slips between pop/rock songs (I hear small references to Procol Harum and The Kinks) and pseudo-jazz improvisations , even direct experimentation with sound, especially the one carried out with the Hammond organ (which will have a characteristic sound in the band): all this with a strong presence of Robert Wyatt -both on drums and on vocals-.

In spite of everything, or perhaps as a result of this experimentation, it is an irregular work, with interesting moments -like the start of the album- and other less impressive ones (especially at the end with the extended song 'Why Are We Sleeping?).
