I mention Gentle Giant because those band members were also multi-instrumentalists & I mention (Larks Tongues era) King Crimson because they likewise played astonishing improv as well as well rehearsed rock tunes which ran the gamut from sublime to thunderous. Henry Cow enjoyed rare company & esteemed musical colleagues.

Allora qualcuno ha detto che gli HENRY COW non potevano permettersi un Mellotron, perché di seconda o terza mano usata non lo potevano rimediare??? Non sarà che invece sono state scelte effettuate dalla band e basta per ottenere un certo tipo di SOUND??? Infatti quando alcuni di loro FRED FRITH, CHRIS CUTLER e DAGMAR KRAUSE misero su gli ART BEARS il Mellotron lo utilizzarono andatevi ad ascoltare il secondo album WINTER SONGS ed il terzo THE WORLD AS IS IT TODAY dove FRED FRITH oltre al violino viola e Xilofono e le chitarre elettriche e acustiche suona anche le tastiere e oltre all'organo credo Hammond pianoforte piano elettrico , harmonium vi è anche il Mellotron .

ROCK music is based on REPETITION (aka Sex, which is what the term "rock and roll" meant!) (rock and rolling in bed)... and is the OPPOSITE of classical or jazz in that regard. And just like you can't "get" a Symphony on the first (or 20th) listen (because there's TOO MUCH going on, vs Simply Pop Songs).... Henry Cow is like that. If you were to listen to this video 15 times, you'd fall in love with it. (The main problem is that most of us, listening to it once, think it's just discordant and aimless. But that's not accurate.)
