Kirk takes you on a trip to the pastoral sites of South-East England, revisiting a time when Canterbury, Kent became the centre of a quiet revolution in sound. The Canterbury scene of the late '60s, early '70s was a loosely affiliated network of musicians from the wider Kent area, who engaged in various forms of improvised jazz, rock and prog madness. Many of the key figures of the Canterbury scene derived from the band Wilde Flowers, including the likes of Brian and Hugh Hopper, Kevin Ayers and Robert Wyatt. From there on the Canterbury Sound brought forth a multitude of outfits with often overlapping players, most notably Soft Machine, Caravan, Gong (spearheaded by influential Australian musician Daevid Allen), Pye Hastings, Matching Mole, National Health, and more.
