Great clip, featuring Nick Mason and Andy Summers. The Top of the Pops producer thought Wyatt's wheelchair was "not suitable for family viewing," and would have preferred to have Robert use a "normal" chair.

I'm on a Robert Wyatt kick at the moment. This is his vocal on, "Masters Of The Field," from the "Winged Migration" soundtrack.
"Wyatting" The verb "Wyatting" appeared in some blogs and music magazines to describe the practice of playing weird tracks on a pub jukebox to annoy the other pub goers. Wyatt was quoted in The Guardian as saying "I think it's really funny" and "I'm very honoured at the idea of becoming a verb." However, when asked if he would ever try it himself, he said "Oh no. I don't really like disconcerting people. Although often when I try to be normal I disconcert anyway."
