Is it possible for anyone on this planet to dislike Robert Wyatt's "Rock Bottom?" The album is very much the definition of "classic" or better yet, perfection. The dreamy textures, the hidden melodies that come bubbling up from the mix, and the beautiful playing by Robert and company, it's just a superb work. The balance of humor and tragedy is walking on a highwire. At the same time, the music is very sad but hysterical at the same time. "Rock Bottom" is a very unique listening experience. The production/recording by Pink Floyd's Nick Mason is exquisite. Not only one of my favorite all-time albums, but I suspect that many feel this way.
