SOFT MACHINE – Rome 1974 (1CD)

Audience 8.3 – A serviceable tape that presents a very round bottom end but has a good solid middle during less frenetic jams, and in turn this also reveals great snappy highs. What I think it is, it’s a loud kick drum that intrudes during active sections, not too badly, but it does push itself too far into the mix. Still GREAT stuff and highly recommended.
