This one should have no business with that name and I think this was done out of contractual obligations (Harvest was a subdivision of EMI , and was not doing well). The fact that Jack Bruce (ex-Cream)and Morrissey(ex-If) are invited as members and the return of Holdsworth , they cannot manage to even begin to save the day. Vocals on Soft Machine album?????

I heard this only once and was not impressed enough to even borrow it from my buddy. Even the play on word of the title is weak. Best avoided! A sad end to superb band and there has not been a new album since ( all the posthumous releases date from far earlier than this album).
