I don't care if the lyrics are poor, it is a great track

Ah yes brings back memories of : August 1973 London, Roundhouse (Greasy Truckers Benefit) [also: Kevin Ayers & 747, Global Village Trucking Company, Glencoe, Keith Christmas]

Well, not actual memories just a bit like being in another universe.

Is this like the game where you have a blindfold and things are put in your mouth without you knowing if they are disgusting or not?

Presumably you are also a fan of Soft Machine?

Indeed, or rather was at the time. In fact any prog rock then, now I have wider tastes but am not "fanatical" about anyone.

Some of Soft Machine are still going - this sounds great but I can't make it to London that weekend:

I tend to think of Soft Machine, and Henry Cow, as avante garde jazz, rather than prog rock, since the former play music which experiments with different modes, and unusual arrangements which can involve the drummer playing a different time signature to the bassist. Prog rock to my mind is more about muscianship, and melody/harmony.

This is a naff mime to what IMHO is a rather nice song.

A simple tune, but a two octave range! RIP Glen.
