John Etheridge/Derek Nash/Ted Beamont/Steve Watts/Trevor Tomkins

Guitarist Etheridge came to prominence in a late Soft Machine line-up and has since played with everyone from Pat Metheny to Stephane Grapelli and John Williams. His work reflects this stylistic promiscuity, adept at switching between lithe gypsy jazz, prog with Soft Machine Legacy or here playing driving straight ahead jazz with this fine band.
