Short Hairs: Roy Harper

Wesley Strick, Blast, October 1976

ROY HARPER is a difficult artist. Roy Harper is a British-born singer, musician and poet. He's not a Rock Star and he doesn't want to be one. "What you need in the music business is heavy, overbearing managers with heavy, strong-arm lawyers to get heavy, respected contracts. I'm not looking for that, 1 don't want to be involved in that."
