Released in June 1970, Third is the third studio album by the English band Soft Machine and is widely considered a landmark of the Canterbury scene and jazz-rock fusion. It famously consists of four long compositions, each occupying an entire side of the original double-LP format. The album marked a radical departure from the band's earlier psychedelic pop roots toward a more complex, avant-garde fusion of jazz and rock. It was heavily influenced by the experimental production and extended improvisations of Miles Davis's Bitches Brew, released earlier that same year.
