Cher(e)s ami(e)s,

Vous avez sous les yeux la 53ème livraison de la newsletter qui depuis presque 19 ans vous injecte régulièrement une petite piqûre de rappel quant à la nécessité de Robert Wyatt.

Un grand merci à Philippe, François, Michel, Aymeric qui ont généreusement contribué à enrichir le site avec des documents souvent rares ou inédits pour notre plus grand plaisir.

 
Ce 28 janvier, je vous propose une nouvelle archive du site au format pdf. Je sais que les plus addicts d'entre vous apprécieront!

Elle est en accès libre ici :


 

Je prépare une nouvelle section de l'Abécédaire qui présentera les partitions des arrangements des reprises les plus percutantes de Robert Wyatt, Matching Mole et Soft Machine. Plusieurs musiciens et compositeurs ont répondu positivement à mon appel à contribution. Si vous souhaitez participer à ce projet un peu fou, contactez-moi sans tarder !
