Check out Weyes Blood’s fine cover of Soft Machine´s "A Certain Kind" on the 7" "A Certain Kind" b/w "Everybody’s Talkin’" (Mexican Summer 2017, ltd. ed. 500 copies).
Wow what a voice, best performance of "A Certain Kind" possible. Almost if it was specially written for Natalie Mering. I'm glad to discover this, immediately ordered this single and the latest CD. Her singing reminds me of Sandy Danny.
And here some horrible versions of A Certain Kind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0e7aCrR0NmE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JDYravQ-9M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zz_ixwPvQ8k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhL9U11MvQ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCAwcxTZJ78
And a brilliant one by Dutch jazz trio eBraam https://l1.nl/20-en-25-juli-36628 middle player at 11"55' It's from their CD "3", yes inspired by Third. http://www.jazzenzo.nl/?e=2441 please use Google Translate
