According to DNB, Roger L'Estrange began the publication of a periodical first called: 'The Observator, in Question and Answer', later, 'The Observator in Dialogue' and finally 'The Observator'; 'The Loyal Observator' was one of the numerous parodies of this periodical. L'Estrange, who was an accomplished musician, acquired the nickname, 'Oliver's fiddler' after 'Cromwell, when paying an accidental visit at the house of John Hingston, the organist, found L'Estrange and a few others practising music.'.
