Soft Machine - Wildflowers (Fan Album/Reimagining)

An attempt at making a third Soft Machine album in the style of their first two, mixing both the more whimsical pop songwriting of Robert Wyatt and Kevin Ayers with the more serious instrumental jazz composition and soloing of Mike Ratledge, Hugh Hopper and Elton Dean. Inspired by rael nyc’s own re-imagined albums, Julian Cope’s Head Heritage review of their early work and the Soft Machine Rigmarole blog and their album reconstructions and re-imaginings. rael nyc: Head Heritage Review: Soft Machine Rigmarole: 0:00 Intro 2:33 Song for Insane Times 6:01 Teeth 7:12 Instant Kitten 10:05 Girl on a Swing 12:54 Out-Bloody-Rageous 15:19 A Last Straw 21:05 Shooting at the Moon 22:49 Virtually 23:21 Noisette 24:55 Shooting at the Moon (Reprise) 25:48 Memories 28:50 Rheinhardt & Geraldine 31:50 Colores Para Dolores 33:00 Facelift 37:02 Moon in June
