Robert Wyatt

Ruth Is Stranger Than Richard (1975) ...

Robert Wyatt's second solo album ...Incomparable ...

Solar Flares + Charlie Haden's Song For Che ... 



 Solar flares burn for you ...soundtrack by RW (1973)...

 "That kind of abdication of the spotlight carried over to Rock Bottom's 1975 sequel, Ruth Is Stranger Than Richard, almost entirely music composed by other people (with occasional lyrics by Wyatt)-- it includes pieces by expatriate South African trumpeter Mongezi Feza ("Sonia", on which Feza himself plays), Charlie Haden, and Jacques Offenbach. The eight-and-a-half-minute "Team Spirit" is sung from the point of view of a soccer ball; "Soup Song" is a rewritten version of the jolly stroll "Slow Walkin' Talk", from the repertoire of Wyatt's mid-60s band the Wilde Flowers, now featuring very silly lyrics from the point of view of a ham hock." pitchfork.com ...

For Robert Wyatt ...
