The aptly titled Volume Two introduced a retooled Soft Machine lineup, with Wyatt and Ratledge joined by bassist Hugh Hopper, an old Canterbury friend who had guested on the first album. The sophomore disc finds the threesome moving towards a more explicitly jazz-influenced sound, with an increased emphasis on instrumental material. The album is bookended by a pair of extended compositions, 'Rivmic Melodies' and 'Esther's Nose Job', which are broken up into shorter individual tracks bearing whimsically arbitrary titles. That approach was suggested to the band by Frank Zappa, whose Mothers of Invention album Absolutely Free was reportedly an influence on Volume Two.
The record looks barely played and is in a near mint condition.
The gatefold sleeve has hardly any wear and is in a near mint condition.
If you don't want to pay the p+p, you can collect the LP from me in person at one of the many record fairs i attend. Take a look at "Record Fairs worth visiting in Leeds" on FACEBOOK.
Also take a look at "Tapestry Of Delights vinyl records" on FACEBOOK to keep updated with new titles that are being added in my Ebay shop on a daily basis.
If you have any questions,please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Thanks for looking!
