When it comes to enthusiasm, your entertaining videos are Uptown Top Ranking, especially regarding your passionate appreciation of the two new YES albums.  |

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

No surprise again that my own personal cockeyed Top 7 looks nothing like the overall Top 7, with my favourite Soft Machine album, "Land of Cockayne" nowhere to be seen - not even if I stretch it out to a Top 10.

A good time to revisit this poll with the new tour announced next year. However, Roy Babbington has decided to retire (and one can hardly blame him - he first appeared on 'Fourth') with Fred Baker replacing him (a well known Canterbury collaborator)!

Third
Fourth The Second Album Softs Fifth The Soft Machine Seven I know I would have enjoyed Bundles much more if Holdsworth wasn't all over it. Yeah he sort of ruines a couple of Gong albums for me as well. I much prefer the lush yachtrockin' Land Of Cockayne (edit: moved Softs up one spot) Edited by Saperlipopette! - December 05 2021 at 02:58 |
