Fuzzy - Box 25/4 Lid (Soft Machine cover)

Hey folks, here’s a cover of a song by one of my favourite bands, Soft Machine (or, The Soft Machine at that point, I guess)! It’s from their 1968 album Volume 1 (it is, unsurprisingly, their first album), and the original song features the incredible Hugh Hopper on fuzz bass.
Interestingly, they recorded this album while touring as an opener for Jimi Hendrix.
Sorry my timing is off; this one is surprisingly difficult to perform accurately.

fine job , especially with the fuzz bass. i think fat mattress was also on that hendrix tour. a classic triple feature. you got me hungry for more fuzzy soft machine

Thank you for introducing Soft Machine to me. It’s a name that I must have read a thousand times - I think Hugh Hopper even plays fuzzbass on a No-Man recording I like - but I have to catch up on them. Tricky line for sure!
