Experimental Explorations with Ivor Cutler

Stuart celebrates the recent centenary of one of Britain’s great eccentrics with gems from his 1967 album, Ludo. Plus, out-there music from Laurel Halo, Neu!, Altın Gün and more.

Stuart celebrates the recent centenary of one of Britain’s great eccentrics with gems from his 1967 album, Ludo. Produced by The Beatles' George Harrison and recorded at Abbey Road Studios, the whimsical and entertaining album is a mix of nonsensical spoken stories, ambient harmonium, sparse piano, bass and percussion. Ludo is largely considered as Ivor Cutler's greatest and funniest recording and the only album he made as part of the "Ivor Cutler Trio" alongside Gill Lyons and Trevor Tomkins.

Plus loads of out-there music including experimental electronics, classic German kosmiche and Turkish psychedelic rock from Laurel Halo, Neu!, Altın Gün and more.
