I loved the 1st 2 albums when they came out. I still prefer the psychedelic dada to fusion. I enjoyed Third, although especially the side that Robert sang on. I saw the Wyatt/Hopper/Dean/Ratledge lineup twice in 1970: Once at the Beacon Theater opening for Miles Davis, and once headlining at Victoria Hall in London. I admire the musicianship of the other 3 a great deal, but when Robert left, a lot of my interest left with him. I have followed his career though. The biography Different Every Time is sitting next to me patiently waiting for me to get to it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00736646523990103303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-8303209746211345782011-05-16T01:07:05.890-04:002011-05-16T01:07:05.890-04:00Not forgotten!
