Might be interesting to watch. Decided to give it a thread. Quack! Geoff the Duck. |

25 Mar 06 - 03:52 PM (#1702695) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: melodeonboy I found the programme both entertaining and informative. Why has noone else commented on it? I thought it would be a popular topic for discussion. Or is Ivor Cutler not held in great esteem by most Mudcatters? |

I missed the concert they showed at the time, mind, much to my annoyance. Please do tell us if you spot a re-broadcast coming up... |

26 Mar 06 - 08:10 AM (#1703072) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: melodeonboy Thanks, Malcolm. I only returned to the U.K. last August so I've obviously missed a lot. I noticed that the programme was a 2005 production so I thought it might have been shown before. |

27 Mar 06 - 03:40 AM (#1703635) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: GUEST,Ralphie GUEST Thanks for the heads up re the R4 prog. Have just had a listen, very good! Malcolm, I think we will be lucky if BBC4 repeat the extracts from Ivors last concert. That they repeated the doc was amazing enough! Luckily, I did manage to video the concert as well. Don't have the facilities to copy it at the moment. but, maybe.... Best Wishes Ralph. |

27 Mar 06 - 03:49 AM (#1703638) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: Geoff the Duck GUEST was me without my biscuit. There were some nice uninterrupted snippets of Ivor's readings, which was nice to hear. I found it by chance driving home after dropping eldest daughter somewhere. Quack! Geoff. |

27 Mar 06 - 04:03 AM (#1703641) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: GUEST Geoff. I should have realised 'twas you! Considering his almost wilful self imposed obscurity, I find it gratifying that the Beeb has paid so many fulsome tributes to Mr Cutler. Regards Ralph. Final Quote. THE HAPPENING. A man put his hand in his pocket To see what was happening. |

27 Mar 06 - 04:05 AM (#1703645) Subject: RE: 24 March 06 Ivor Cutler Tribute From: Paul Burke Driving while listening to Ivor Cutler can be very dangerous- I unthinkingly lent a tape to a friend over from the USA who had hired a car. Apparently she put the tape on just as she reached the M1/ M18 junction, in heavy traffic. She's recovered enough to speak to me now. |
