Ivor Cutler RIP
Posted by hutchowen on May 29, 2006
Memorial Day weekend, 2 am getting quietly drunk, making comic ads and my MOCCA and carousel show, suddenly remembering how great Ivor Cutler is.
Ivor! Cutler! 
I have two albums (Jammy Smears, and Prince Ivor) recorded for me by Lisa Maslowe, who painted original watercolors for the sleeves (this is in the cassette days) cause she loved him so much. The smartest, funniest anecdotes and bizarre songs (”Bicarbonate of Chicken”, for instance.)
I still think of his anecdote, told in his intense Scottish brogue, about his father scolding him to “go change your trousers, you’ll get a RASH!”, every time I jerk off.
Well he died two months ago and I never heard a word.
See http://www.ivorcutler.org/, please, for more about this art saint.
Never saw a young picture of him til now:
