Canterbury Scene

A sub category of progressive rock started by the band The Wilde Flowers. Members of this band went on to form Caravan and The Soft Machine. The style of music mixes whimsical psychadelia with jazz inspired improvisation.

In the Land of Grey and Pink is a great Canterbury Scene album.

hatfield and the north

A Canterbury Scene supergroup of sorts featuring members from Caravan, Matching Mole, Gong, Delivery and Egg. They tend to have the same whimsical feel of Richard Sinclair era-Caravan with extended, often jazzy instrumental interludes. And they are amazing.

Hatfield and the North make up for terrible lyrics with awesome everything else.
