This version of Gharbzadegi, from the 2002 Robert Wyatt documentary "Free Will and Testament", is a complete and utter treat, a six-and-a-half-minute journey through musical paradise. I consider Robert Wyatt to be one of the foremost of living British musicians and composers, and I think that my opinion is justified on this piece of music alone, without even considering any of his other wonderful material.

When dear Robert Wyatt leaves us for his beautiful Eternal Mansion...I will fucking CRY like a Baby! So many Huge losses in the past few years - Great Visionary, and Singular Artists: Mark Hollis...Scott Walker - Wyatt is still amongst us, even though I hear that he is ceasing Musical activity. If there is ONE Human Being I would Love to meet, and have a chat with, it is THIS Man! He is the Wise Uncle I have Never had! I LOVE You, Mr. Wyatt!

All these years later, and playing this on max vol, I keep putting this recording and this video in my top 3. Has it really been almost forty years? Wyatt and his flux of musical allies have been the background to my life. This video makes me love them all again. What would I pay for a cleaned-up hi-res DVD of this session? It is still comforting to see other fans expressing the same view. BTW. I recent;ly bought and devoured the Robert Wyatt biography by Marcus O'Dair ("Different Every Time") and it is terrific: moving and comprehensive.

Gharbzadegi is still a valid and true concept. Western strategic hegemony is intimately tied to making other countries capitalistic and then trading with them. Countries, like Thailand, come to imitate the Western models and Western criteria in education, the arts, and culture; through the transformation of such countries into post-industrial capitalisms, they turn into a passive market for Western goods and a pawn in Western geopolitics, hence why sex tourism is viewed positively by Houellebecq. It strengthens the dollar and the West at the expense of the dignity of other countries. Persian intellectuals, even before the 1979 revolution when they were Westernized by the CIA-controlled dictator Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, called it “Westoxification” (Gharbzadegi). It will eventually come to an end though. What bothered me about Houellebecq's Platform was how it approved sex tourism in Thailand because it defends the actions on account the prostitutes are paid. Therefore, in Houellebecq’s views, it’s okay for a tourist agency to promote sex tourism because it spreads commerce. I predicted an ******* like Houellebecq would emerge who uses doublespeak as a way to implicitly defend his desire for Western hegemony, based off how it supports his carnal desires.
