SOFT MACHINE
SEVEN (1973)
320 KBPS

Seven is a very organic record. There are no oustanding tracks, but all tracks flow nicely one in another and you have to listen to it as a whole and let you transport by the athmosphere. Special mention should be awarded to Babbington and Marshall. The departure of Elton Dean and the arrival of Karl Jenkins, a classical trained musician and composer who had already played together with Babbington and Marshall in Nucleus, changed the group from a freeblowing outfit to a more composition oriented outfit. Roy Babbington, who has already helped out on 'Four' and 'Five' fits perfectly into the group. A very nice last classic Soft Machine opus.
