Robert Wyatt
David Stubbs, Uncut, December 1997
ROBERT WYATT'S career has meandered long and strange, like an underground driver. He's played alongside Hendrix, Mike Oldfield and Phil Manzanera, as well as avant-garde extremists such as Fred Frith, with whom he hilariously appeared on Top Of The Pops in the mid-Seventies, covering The Monkees' 'I'm A Believer'.
