Rock Bottom, Robert Wyatt (1974)

"His private persona erupted on Rock Bottom (1974), one of rock music's supreme masterpieces, a veritable transfiguration of both rock and jazz. Its pieces straddle the unlikely border between an intense religious hymn and a childish nursery rhyme. Along that imaginary line, Wyatt carved a deep trench of emotional outpouring, where happiness, sorrow, faith and resignation found a metaphysical unity. The astounding originality of that masterpiece, and its well-crafted flow of consciousness, were never matched by Wyatt's later releases." -Piero Scaruffi on Rock Bottom

  • music by Robert Wyatt and God

  • what a great album.

  • 2 personnes ont du temps à perdre pour dire qu'elles n'aiment pas. Je comprends qu'on n'aime pas, mais pourquoi le dire ? Je ne vais pas voir les vidéos de lady gaga ou de Coldplay pour donner un avis négatif

  • respiro il Tempo: ....

  • la subtilité de robert wyatt à l'état brut, mes respect...

  • the bass line reminds me of in a silent way.

  • What beautiful bass playing by the late Hugh Hopper, some of his best work IMO.

    He's actually playing two different bass lines, ah the art of overdubbling!

  • Robert Wyatt is stranger than Richard Sinclair.
