Product Information
As the Soft Machine's first bassist and original principal songwriter,
Kevin Ayers was an overlooked force behind the group's
groundbreaking recordings in 1967 and 1968. Joy Of A Toy is his
debut solo album, its whimsical and unique vision is a clear
indication of how Soft Machine might have progressed under Ayers'
tenure. On the LP he is accompanied by his Soft Machine colleagues
Robert Wyatt, Mike Ratledge and Hugh Hopper. After a Soft
Machine tour of the USA with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, Ayers
had decided to retire from the music business. Hendrix however,
presented Ayers with an acoustic Gibson J-200 guitar on the
promise that he continue his songwriting. Ayers repaired to a small
London flat where he composed and arranged Joy Of A Toy
features many of Ayers' most enduring songs from »The Lady
Rachel« to »Girl on a Swing«. It was on this album that Ayers
developed his sonorous vocal delivery, an avant-garde song
construction and an affection for bizarre instrumentation that
would have a deep influence far into the 1970s and indeed the
present day.
Rezensionen
»Neben seinen alten
Soft-Machine-Kollegen waren mit
David Bedford und Paul Buckmaster
auch zwei Kollegen aus dem klassischen
Fach an den Aufnahmen beteiligt,
das in der 2003er CD-Fassung
hinzugekommene Outtake ›Religious
Experience‹ mit dem Gastauftritt von
Syd Barrett ist hier allerdings nicht
mit dabei, wäre aber durchaus einen
Bonus-Track wert gewesen.« (Good Times, April / Mai 2015)
