{"product_id":"soft-machine_bundles_2022","title":"Bundles","description":"A remastered 2CD edition of the 1975 album \"Bundles\" by the famous jazz\/progressive group Soft Machine. The album was the group's first for Harvest of EMI and featured a line-up of Mike Ratledge (keyboards), Karl Jenkins (oboe, piano, soprano sax), John Marshall (drums), Roy Babbington (bass), and Allan Holdsworth (guitar). \u003cbr\u003eAn accessible collection, \"Bundles\" showcased Holdsworth's considerable guitar talents and opened a new chapter for the group. The album received much acclaim, particularly for the superb five-part piece \"Hazard Profile.\" After the release of \"Bundles\" in March 1975, the group embarked on a busy touring schedule, but they soon faced the blow of Allan Holdsworth suddenly leaving to join The New Tony Williams' Lifetime. \u003cbr\u003eHoldsworth was replaced by John Etheridge, and Soft Machine toured extensively for the rest of 1975. A fabulous concert at the University of Nottingham on October 11, 1975, featured much of the material presented on the album, as well as the first performances of some pieces that would be recorded for the group's 1976 album 'Softs.'","brand":"Soft Machine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58407589413208,"sku":null,"price":23455952.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/5013929481299.jpg?v=1788648088","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/soft-machine_bundles_2022","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
