Hazards of Love?

I've seen a few sources mentioning that he is on the new Decemberists cd, but they don't say on which song(s) he actually sings. Does anyone know? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.193.16 (talk) 16:40, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

As I recall, he doesn't sing, he plays guitar. He's listed in the liner notes, but I don't have them handy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.55.54.39 (talk) 18:59, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Ole Recorded in Seattle?

According to the 2006 documentary Robyn Hitchock: Sex, Food, Death... & Insects, the Ole! Tarantula album was recorded in England, not Seattle.--71.113.104.151 23:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

According to the sleeve notes on the album itself, it was recorded in Seattle. It was then dubbed and overdubbed in England (London) and Wales (Cardiff). The way it's written, there's a tiny bit of ambiguity about whether this is talking about the whole album or just Peter Buck's bit, but on balance I believe it's trying to say the whole thing was indeed done in Seattle. – Kieran T ^(talk) 00:52, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Respect problem

The original page for the "Respect" album was deleted by Wiki. Now, someone has created another page called "Respect (album)" which is entirely unrelated to Robyn H and so the link goes there in error. Does someone know how to unconnect it, without removing "Respect" from the album listing? (And would someone do a page for Robyn's "Respect"?) MegdalePlace 20:57, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Link fixed by changing it from [[Respect (album)|Respect]] to [[Respect (Robyn Hitchcock album)|Respect]] — I'm also going to investigate the album now at Respect (album), which I see hasn't been added to Respect (disambiguation), and perhaps rename it to include the name of its creator too. – Kieran T ^(talk) 21:04, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Born in guildford?

I read that RH was born in Guildford, but the article says born London. (Guildford would make sense in the context of the song where he mentions living in Jenner Road). Can anyone confirm which/cite a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.43.165.196 (talk) 12:43, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

A Slipping Down Life

It has been failed to mention that two of his songs were featured on the soundtrack to the movie, "A Slipping Down Life," sung by Guy Pearce. The songs are "You've Got A Sweet Mouth On You Baby" (1998) and "Elizabeth Jade" (1998). I would add the info myself but I'm not familiar enough with Hitchcock's work to reference what albums those songs are taken from. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xeokym (talk • contribs) 09:44, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Both from "Jewels For Sophia". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.186.229.12 (talk) 15:32, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
