Nothing Can Stop Robert Wyatt: An Interview
Barney Hoskyns, MOJO, March 1999
THE DAY before I drive up to Lincolnshire to interview Robert Wyatt, there is a march through the streets of Santiago - a procession of relatives of men and women "disappeared" years ago by the regime of General Augusto Pinochet. On this march, every wife, mother, and brother clutches a placard bearing a picture of a disappeared beloved and the simple, stark question "¿DONDE ESTAN?"
