:Personally, I have a problem with the Pitchfork reviews of his albums, not necessarily because of the low ratings, but because they seem to want to review them as if they were "indie rock" albums, (or at least some sort of pop-rock subgenre) instead of the more jazz-related albums that they are. This is especially true of his post-1970s work. That being said, such a review shouldn't necessarily be deleted, but it's something to think about anyway.

I've added a whole bunch of information and an infobox, but don't have a link to a fair use cover scan or any external review links... Fosse8 16:34, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, that was impressively fast...! Fosse8 20:48, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

which floor have he fallen from?

did he fall from the third or fourth floor?

here [1] it is written 3rd floor

and here [2] it is written 4th floor.

which is true?

A UK third floor window is the same as a US fourth floor window, so maybe the 'Rock Bottom' entry was written by an American and the 'Robert Wyatt' entry written by a Briton? Halmyre (talk) 16:46, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
