Soft Machine
πŸ“€ Softs
#JazzRock #ProgressiveRock #InstrumentalRock #JazzFusion

50 years ago Soft Machine from #Canterbury, England, #UK released their 9th studio album.

Like πŸ‘‰ their previous album, Softs features a wider use of guitars as compared to the band's past discography.

During the recording of the album, #SoftMachine last remaining original member, Mike Ratledge, left the band.
This is probably why many see this album as a complete loss of the band's identity.

In any case this is amazing music from beginning to end ❀️‍πŸ”₯

In this album:
#RoyBabbington β€“ bass
#JohnEtheridge β€“ acoustic and electric guitars
#JohnMarshall β€“ drums, percussion
#AlanWakeman β€“ saxophones
#KarlJenkins β€“ piano, electric piano, Hohner Pianet, Minimoog, string synthesizers, orchestrations

Additional musician
#MikeRatledge β€“ synthesizer

Ti stavo a guardare
Nel silenzio
Il senso dello spazio ci divide giΓ 

Mi fermo qui, davanti a questo muro
Ogni parola non ha piΓΉ peso dell'aria
Che si confonde in noi

Non respirare
Questo momento non ha etΓ 
E un vago senso di vuoto ci colora

Ti prego lasciami solo
Io, scatto senza volo
Io, cuore senza amore
Io, re del mio silenzio

40 years ago Elixir from London, #UK released their debut studio album.

The band was founded in 1983 and is probably the latest New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (#NWOBHM) act to release its debut album.

The Son Of Odin is widely considered not only a hidden gem of that British movement, but one of the best Power Metal albums of the 1980s🀘

#Elixir in this album:
#PaulTaylor – vocals, keyboards
#PhilDenton – guitar, keyboards
#NormanGordon – guitar
#KevinDobbs – bass
#NigelDobbs – drums

Probably few know or remember him, he was successful in middle 1980s but not a mainstream artist.

He recorded his 1rst album in 1979 backed by none less than the πŸ‘‰ PFM members !
This is ranked among the 100 Italian best albums.

The song below was (is) amazingπŸ‘‡
