5.0 out of 5 stars a masterpiece miles away from the mainstream , 8 Oct 2007
This review is from: Comicopera (Audio CD)
As a journalist, I've got my promo copy weeks ago, but this album of the wonderful eccentric man form North England became, within hours, my album of the year 2007. It is full of wonderful melodies, surprising changes, dream-like jazz elements (never polished, always raw)! What some may call whimsical or weird, is just another fabulous achievement of Robert Wyatt, mixing melancolia, humour, politics and private life in an absolute unique way. The contributions of his soul mates Gilad Atzmod and Brian Eno add to the special wonders this music is constantly offering. A future classic! In germany this record got great reviews all over the place, but such brilliance will never find its way into the Top 10. Sorry for that.

4.0 out of 5 stars Totally Original, 23 Oct 2007
By The Soft Machine Operator (COVENTRY, WARWICKSHIRE United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Comicopera (Audio CD)
I'm unable to classify Robert Wyatt - it's jazzy, poppy, mellow and all sung with those wonderful vocals. With contributions from first class musicians like Brian Eno & Gilad Atzmon, the music floats and shimmers, but never gets dull and never gets repetitive. The sparse lyrics are intruiging.

A true original.

5.0 out of 5 stars the one thing you can really be sure with a new wyatt album is it's going to be great, 6 Oct 2007
This review is from: Comicopera (Audio CD)
and this is no exception! i was sad to see that some-one had posted a 3-star review before it's been released, so i thought i'd write telling people not to panic

i'm listening to this album as i write, and it's nearly over and i can honestly say it's been very enjoyable. any-one who's listened to robert's music will know it quite hard to talk about as the music is so original and different...but you should certainly expect the unexpected, as with most wyatt albums!

To get to the point thought, certainly an album worth buying if your a robert wyatt fan, a welcome refreshment to the commercial annoyance's i'm used to hearing when i turn on the radio!

Robert Wyatt has always been a bit of an oddity. Born English but always a globetrotter, he was the singing drummer for late sixties prog-rockers Soft Machine. Read more
