| While I know the correct answer is Wyatt, I have yet to hear the other two, so no vote. |

Impossible poll. All three are wonderful in their own way so I can’t vote. ------------- ''Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.'' - Albert Camus |

Not all that impossible. Wyatt is the one with Rock Bottom. ------------- Over land and under ashes In the sunlight, see - it flashes Find a fly and eat his eye But don't believe in me Don't believe in me Don't believe in me |

Robert Wyatt play drums while he sings! I play alot of Soft Machine these days. Drumming and singing is really fun (but hard). Moon in June is amazing to play! -------------

I love all 3, but Robert Wyatt has been the most consistently excellent in his solo output. Even if that weren't the case, neither Allen nor Ayers has released anything that equals Rock Bottom. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...'

He's on the Jet-Propelled Photographs album, which was released much later (originally a pre-RGI Trilogy album).
Exactly. That's why I can't vote either. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Salty_Jon" rel="nofollow">
