Sir Psychedelic Soul (nice name by the way) I think it's a bit pointless to bring it down to Syd only doing 1 Floyd album, lets not forget Hendirx is one of the finest song writers in the history of rock'n'roll and he only did 3 studio albums, same amount as Syd unless you want to correct me, but i'd say he's stronger than mic and keef who have done like 30 studio albums
....hey hey...i thought this topic was limited only to floyd albums...i hadn't assumed that we could count solo records as well............i gotta admit also that i'm not very familiar with a lot of syd's solo work.....

my vote for roger was based on the music/songwriting only on PF records. i wasn't counting his or syd's solo works.
