It's been a couple of months since I first received Robert Wyatt's excellent "Comicopera", which still isn't out until October. In the meantime, one of Wyatt's old sparring partners has sneaked under the wire ahead of him. Kevin Ayers, of all people, has a new album out at the start of September, and it's rather good.Apparently, this is the first Ayers album for about 15 years, though I must ad...
