Ivor Cutler

My nearly lifelong friend Sheila Ryan is currently at work on an essay/appreciation [for elimae] of the work of British eccentric/writer/musician Ivor Cutler, who died earlier this year. In the meantime she sends along this link to one of his songs, “I Built a House”. [Despite the depth of his voice, Ivor is singing in the voice of "the wife" in this song.] Other songs and story clips can be accessed by clicking here.

    Delightful–like John Cale with a sense of humor.
