Anyway that guy speaking at the end of "Little Red Robin Hood Hit The Road" is Scottish poet and musician Ivor Cutler and the instrument is a harmonium being played by Cutler himself, it is a pretty odd way to end the album but that's Wyatt for ya.
You did say before that you don't like Canterbury in general, which I can't get enough of personally, I get the impression you just don't like the jazzier side of prog.

So that's why you're called Queen Boo!
Look, I'm not saying it's a **** album, just not for me. Do not, ever, expect me to pretend I like something when I don't. Even if it's by an artist I love, if it sucks I'll say it. Both Genesis (Abacab) and Marillion (Somewhere Else) have had bad albums, and I call them out on them. This did nothing for me, nothing at all. But yes, I find CS hard to get into, if not impossible, and I do not like jazz full stop. I once tried to address this by writing a jazz journal, but by the first page I had realised it was just depressing me, and I stopped. Some people, oddly enough, are not into jazz. Meet one of them.
Oh, and I hate Astral Weeks too.
