'A 1970 Dutch group who played a mix of what was popular at the time: psych, progressive, hard rock and horn rock... The strong Hammond organ presence adds a proto-prog sound similar to Deep Purple - Gnosis
1970 Dutch rarity
Ex Swinging Soul Machine
Hammond organ, psych guitar
Liner notes included
Machine evolved out of Dutch pop-soul legends Swinging Soul Machine in 1970, and featured vocalist John Caljouw, whod previously been a member of local psych legends Dragonfly. Their sole album combines acid guitar with brass and progressive flourishes, coming across like a cross between Chicago and Deep Purple. It was issued in Holland only in 1970, and original vinyl copies are considerable rarities today, making this CD reissue especially welcome.
