We were talking about Robert Wyatt and his partner Alfreda Benge t'other day on the Ivor Cutler profile programme by the wonderful KT Tunstall and low and behold they crop up on Aquarium Drunkard this very morn . . . . [well yesterday! - ED]
As Brian says: “If you want songs that touch your mind as well as your heart, these are the best,” says Brian Eno regarding Robert Wyatt and Alfie Benge’s recently released Side By Side, a collection of lyrics, poems, writings, and drawings from Wyatt and painter, songwriter, Alfreda Benge, longtime collaborators and partners.
Aquarium Drunkard says:
With a new book, reissue campaign, and new collaboration with Mary Halvorson’s Code Girl, it’s officially Robert Wyatt Season. Welcome to The Free Will and Testament of Robert Wyatt, a playlist featuring favorites and deep cuts selected by Aquarium Drunkard founder Justin Gage.
