Biography

Bristol-born singer and drummer, co-founder of *Soft Machine* and *Matching Mole*. Paralysed in a 1973 fall, he reinvented himself with 'Rock Bottom' (1974) on #Virgin Records# and a run of singular solo albums through 'Comicopera' (2007). Before Soft Machine he played in the Wilde Flowers, the seed of the Canterbury scene, and his high, plaintive singing turned the limits imposed by his injury into one of the most recognisable sounds in British music.
