Formed in Cambridge in the late '60s, Henry Cow performed a blend of progressive, humorous, and avant-garde music that has always put them ahead of their time. This particular tune is actually a cover, but I feel that it more than does justice to the original. Matching Mole, another English art rock group, wrote the tune and released it on the second of their two records. However, this live version by Henry Cow showcases the virtuosic abilities of the band members as well as the energy that they brought to their live performances.
