Were bands like Soft Machine and Gong considered part of that scene? If not who were the major bands representing it?
Kevin Cruz
I'd say Soft Machine kicked the whole scene off
John Ward
soft machine is the core band.it begat caravan(via the wild flowers) gong, robert wyatt, kevin ayers etc
Camden Allen
Very nice, I will check out the rest of the album. The flute is probably my favorite wind instrument used in prog.
Caravan, Soft Machine, Gong, and Hatfield and the North are what I would consider the major bands. The interesting thing is that all of the members of these bands were constantly forming one off groups and playing in each other's bands
Cooper Butler
Yeah man, prog rock.

Why was Kevin such a chad?
Luke Rivera
prog is literally the only good music that has been made in the past 60 years
Hunter Richardson
Thanks for the input. I really like early Soft Machine and Gong when Daevid Allen was in the band. Heard of Caravan and Hatfield and the North but never listened to them. I'll check them out. Also never realized how interconnected these bands were to each other. I had heard that Daevid Allen was an original member of Soft Machine but had to quit because of a passport issue and he couldn't tour with them.

love gong and kevin ayers personally, not super familiar with canterbury in general, but i think ayers and allen were in each others bands at various points post soft machine . dont sleep on kevin ayers, although hes certainly less 'proggy' than the others. matching mole is good too (essentially robert wyatt solo)

Leo Cruz
is henry cow actually canterbury? they are so different than the rest but they always get lumped in with soft machine and hatfield for some reason. I know frith and wyatt collaborated but there's got to be more
Nicholas Bennett
Kind of since they were undoubtedly influenced by it and have collaborated with people from the scene. They were mostly kind of there own thing, which became the rock in opposition movement later on.
Andrew Evans
My gf likes Yes and Rush. She also likes Supper's Ready.
She'd never go deep into prog like me but she likes some of the entry stuff, as long as it has some catchy bits sometimes

I don't think they make the cut
William Rodriguez
is this lp canterbury? (if so i agree with op)
Henry Rogers
This would be true if King Crimson's Red and Discipline didn't exist.
Yes, they're both canterbury though I think Caravan is more representative of the scene.
