ROBERT WYATT & ALFREDA BENGE
It was a rare treat to speak to Robert Wyatt by phone for this interview, I'd like to gratefully acknowledge Joyce at Cuneiform Records for kindly setting this up. When I first dreamt of doing Dream Magazine, Robert Wyatt's name was near the top of the list of folks I wanted to talk to. I've been tuned into his stuff since the first Soft Machine album, though he had recorded as early as 1962 as a member of The Wilde Flowers, and as a solo artist, continues to this day as one of the most artistically vital avant pop composer/singers of his, or any generation since.

His open armed embrace of jazz, folk, pop, socialist politics, intelligence, wit, minimalism, progressive rock, compassion, psychedelia, several different international musical forms, and his own distinctive vision is a singular contribution to the history of recorded music.

Musical artist
Robert Wyatt (born Robert Wyatt-Ellidge, 28 January 1945[3][4]) is an English retired musician.
