\nIn one of those happy on-line community moments, I got a cool pointer on Flickr from imago<\/a> (who has some very cool photos – see the example to the right) to a neat clip of Ivor Cutler<\/a> performing a great little song “Shoplifting”. This was pulled from an old UK TV show called The Old Grey Whistle Test<\/a> (also here<\/a>, and the Beeb will sell you DVDs<\/a>), and features Ivor playing his harmonium<\/a> and singing. It’s a wonderfully goofy song and a totally dead-pan performance that is, in some ways, just what I would have expected from Cutler.<\/p>\n

\nCheck out the video here<\/a>. imago found it on WFMU’s blog<\/a>, and they snagged it from YouTube<\/a>. Great fun and definitely recommended.<\/p>\n

It looks like Andy Kershaw’s BBC Radio 3 show<\/a> on Sunday is a very popular “Listen again”<\/a> show this week, which is a nice sign. The show featured a great Cutler session recorded for John Peel in 1979, as well as a fine tribute to Ali Farka Toure, who also died recently. And who couldn’t love that Rev. Charlie Jackson guitar sermon track! This show should be available until sometime Sunday, so check it out while you can!<\/p>\n

And again a huge thanks to imago<\/a> for the tip!<\/p>\n\n\t
