The "best" out of these is probably Percy, which I voted for btw...but the most interesting from a musical point of view ie composing, experimenting and so forth is most likely Hopper (the British version of Holger Czukay).

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Oh god...how do I choose.

Three sided coin flip...Hopper, today.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Hopper plays on all my fave Soft Machine-album, Rock Bottom and another dozen of other minor gems. Always a joy (of a toy) to follow/listen to.
