Robert Wyatt ‘Rock Bottom’ - I (and others) have expounded on the merits of this album over many years. All I can add is that it is as unique and perfect a record as I have heard in my six decades of existence. God bless you, Robert;


I was watching KT Tunstell's documentary on Ivor Cutler this week(sky arts) which is worth watching. Robert and Alfie were close friends to Ivor and of course he's on that telephone track on Rock Bottom. Seamless link there.

Also I've been listening to Laughing Stock this week with encouragement from Fatalist. So naturally I will have to check out the solo album next.


Read Robert Wyatt's autobiog book "Different Every Time" recently- fascinating read - what a guy. "Rock Bottom" is one of my all time faves. Rediscovered "Laughing Stock" recently. Definitely part of a holy trinity with "Spirit Of Eden" and the MH solo album.
