Wayward genius of U.K. folk who veers between outspoken firebrand and long-suffering romantic. A sharp-witted U.K. folkie, Harper is at once folk's most outspoken firebrand and its subtlest, deepest suffering romantic. Following a spell in the RAF, Harper travelled North Africa, Europe and London for a year before graduating to folk clubs. The release of "Folkjokeopus" in 1969 established Harper?s reputation as an artist unwilling to compromise. "Flat Baroque And Berserk" contained Harper classic "I Hate The White Man", covered by This Mortal Coil and Cocteau Twins.
