Syd Barrett going completely *bonkers* and as such being forced to leave PF was quite a tragedy I think.

I like Steve Hogarth so I can't say anything about Fish.  It would have to be Genesis because they became irrelevant after Gabriel left.

Only reminding forum posters that calling other person as "idiot" isn't a good manner to have an educated and learning discussion. Agressive posts containing this word to be edited.

Gabriel leaving Genesis.

Dont care much for Waters leaving PF because their last two albums (Wall and Final Cut) were crap.

What about Greg Lake leaving Crimson?

The obvious answer for me is Gabriel (& Hackett!) leaving genesis.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity
