Customer Reviews:
George Martin produces in '68 what more do you need to know?.......2004-03-09
Totally quirky, underhandedly brilliant. Listen with your kids!
Let's Play Ludo.......2003-01-10
Mr. Cutler is a unique artist who's work brings together the absurd, beauty, joy and melancholly to form his songs, poems and stories. Although many of his songs may make you laugh or smile there is a great seriousness and depth there. His songs stand up when covered by other artists e.g. Jim O'Rourke (Women of the World) and Robert Wyatt (Grass). One shouldn't underrate him by labelling him as just a comical curiosity. There is a lot more to him than that.
LUDO the only album by the Ivor Cutler Trio, recorded by Sir George Martin in 1967, is one of the best Ivor Cutler releases and has a unique flavour with fuller arrangements of his songs than just harmonium/ piano and voice (it's still fairly sparse). Flim, Flam, Flum and I Had a Little Boat are achingly beautiful. Cocka-doodle-don't and I'm Happy should make you laugh and dance and sing. It's great.
Please note this is not ROCK, so please don't play it too loud.
