In the past few days, I've made an amazing music discovery. His name is Robert Wyatt and the album is Rock Bottom. Robert Wyatt was a drummer in the 60s who played with the likes of Syd Barrett and Jimi Hendrix. He persued a solo career after that in the 70s that focused around his frail and hearbreaking voice. Shortly after the release of his first solo album, he was in a horrible accident where he got drunk at a party and fell out of a fourth story window. He was paralyzed from the waist down but went on to release his best work less than a year later, Rock Bottom. You can sense the sadness in his voice. But his wife Alfie says the accident has never made him depressed. She says that he doesn't mind not having use of his legs. She says he lives in a dream. He doesn't need to walk anywhere because he can go there in his mind. It really shows in his music.
