Has to be Caravan for me, although I do enjoy other albums more from these artists now. Blind Dog at St. Dunstans and Steve Hillage - Green to name a couple :-)

BTW, why wasn't there a Matching Mole album present in the poll?

Rock Bottom today but it could've been Grey and Pink or The Rotter's Club any other day.

At first I thought this was no contest as Rotters Club is well on the way to being a firm favourite but hmmm In the Land is a particularly fine album, or so I reckon. Although I approve of Wyatts idiosyncracity, Soft Machine leaves me unstirred and I'm not a great fan of Hillage's vocals so Khan is not up there for me. Must give Polite and Mainstream a good listen before final decision.

(Forgive me if I was wrong but I did presume that Hillage handled lead vocals on the Khan album)

OK, so Soft Machine, Khan, Gong and Hillage leave me largely unmoved. Hillage as a player reminds me of the old adage "just because you can, doesn't mean you should".

Of the rest ... the Caravan and Hatfield albums stand out as the most accessable so always going to win as the most popular. Nonetheless the albums from National Health, Quiet Sun and Egg cannot so easily be dismissed. Really nice stuff. Like all three a lot. Given the input from Manzanera and Eno I should not be surprised by Quiet Sun but definitely well pleased with NH and Egg, well pleased indeed.

Which leaves dear old My Wyatt solo. I love the guy, like I love Hammill and Adrian Rawlinson but sadly that doesn't necessarily translate to loving the output, though dear old now sadly departed Adrian probably got closer than most. (Which is off topic and beside the point) .

Number one ? I'm still not sure. Think I'll continue to dither.
