Lucky you, I wish I could, but I don't think they will ever come to North America, and a ticket to Germany would be ridiculously expensive, especially for a college student.

Soft Machine was much more innovative and better than Egg IMO (although I like Egg as well).  I did a poll like this several months ago.  My vote then was for Soft Machine, and my vote now is still for Soft Machine, but I really love every Canterbury band!!!

I can't decide either - they're all so closely interlinked that the poll is almost meaningless.

Just replace Soft Machine with Egg and there you have the five best Canterbury bands. Hard to decide really.. maybe Caravan.
