In a later interview in 1980, Holdsworth reflected on his time with Soft Machine and their album "Bundles." He mentioned that he joined the band for about a year and that it was a unique experience for him, as he had never played in odd time signatures before. They recorded the album "Bundles" together, and he used a Gibson ES-175 guitar going directly into his AC-30 amplifier for the solos. Interestingly, during the recording of "Hazard Profile, Pt. I," he accidentally left about five bars of silence in the solo, which was later filled with additional notes in post-production because the band decided to keep the track as it was. | In a later interview in 1980, Holdsworth reflected on his time with Soft Machine and their album "Bundles."
