About this Quote

Robert Wyatt's quote suggests that he has actually constantly been a fan of popular song, however that he had a misunderstanding with the progressive rock scene. This misconception most likely comes from the truth that he was swimming in the opposite direction of the progressive rock scene. This could suggest that he was not interested in the same kind of music as the avant-garde rock scene, or that he was not following the same patterns as the progressive rock scene. It might likewise suggest that he was not interested in the very same type of way of life as the progressive rock scene. Whatever the misunderstanding was, it is clear that Robert Wyatt has actually constantly been a fan of popular song which he was not thinking about the same things as the progressive rock scene.
