King Cutler

January 19th, 2008 by Steve Bowbrick

Ivor Cutler inhabits my dreams. As a kid I often drifted off to sleep to the muffled sound of Cutler in the next room (he wasn’t actually in the next room but my Dad’s old tape recorder was). I’m not going to waste any more energy describing an almost perfectly strange and beautiful artist like Cutler. He just was. This is the first in a six-part series that went out in 1990 - a collaboration with his long-time partner Phyllis King. BBC7 ran it again this morning in the early hours but I can’t tell if they’re going to run the other five (you figure it out). MP3.

    Hi

    I love this site!

    Do you do requests? I missed Jarvis Cocker on the history of fanzines. It is on listen again http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/zinescene/ but it is blocked at work :-(

    I think it could be interesting?

    Cheers!
