Canterbury Jazz rock

damonjewel

Any fans of canterbury out there. I have been getting into this over the past few months, Gong, Soft Machine, Matching Mole mainly. The musicianship is excellent and the music is weird sh1t. Steve Hillage of Gong is an awesome guitarist Any ideas who else I should check out?

Here some Gong for you all to check out

tbh I find a lot of the Canterbury scene pretty dull, Caravan, Hatfield & the north, Steve Hillage solo stuff, Kevin Ayers(poor mans Nick Drake) just don't do it for me

Whereas
Soft Machine
