Canterbury Soundwaves archive 3-4

Hugh Hopper's first and last recorded performances (separated by 46 years and both involving Daevid Allen), Sun Ra's influence considered, the audio from some recently discovered French TV footage of Kevin Ayers and Caravan live in Paris (1970 and 1973, respectively), a rare (and somewhat muffled) glimpse of Egg live in 1970, Peter Blegvad considering the noun form of the adjective "numinous" in the midst of a wonderful bit of National Health, Robert Wyatt live (sort of) in 2003(!), and a lo-fi recording of his Matching Mole classic "O Caroline" being sung mostly in Welsh.

An unexpected guest brings out the wilder side of Caravan, Terry Riley's influence explored, an African excursion, Soft Machine unleashing total sonic mayhem on a Dutch TV audience in 1967 and several Canterbury bands covering each other's material (among other things).
