volume ll

Originally released in 1969 following the departure of Kevin Ayers, Soft Machine second album is a more experimental and ambitious work that its predecessor. With Robert Wyatt as the driving creative force and the addition of Hugh Hopper on bass, Volume Two (blending pysch, jazz, and pop with enough whimsy and humor) is progressive rock at its finest. A classic of the Canterbury Scene. Featuring new liner notes.
