I have heard that from a few people before, think Volume Two takes a while to dig its claws in, can't remember not loving it, but I have heard it too many times to recall first impressions now. Third is the one people usually cite as the best (not me, but many people), 4 and 5 are also good, though more generic psych-jazz and much less mind-blowing.

Man, I gotta say it's probably the new one, Other Doors. Still obviously a different beast from the Wyatt years and the '70s, but this might be my favorite of the current era yet!

Wish Nucleus had kept their own name so you didn't have to think mid 70s fusion lps were bad Soft Machine.They can be like semi interesting in themselves. Just don't want to be going Wyatt was so much more interesting. Like he probably was contemporarily
