Ivor Cutler: I'm Going In A Field

When he was alive, Ivor Cutler (1923-2006) was a quite brilliant poet, singer, songwriter and musician. He was also Scottish.

Cutler first experienced nationwide fame when he appeared in The Beatles’ film Magical Mystery Tour as bus conductor Buster Bloodvessal. Following his role in the film he made an album with Beatles’ producer George Martin, called Ludo, on which ‘I’m Going In A Field’ appears.

Cutler’s music is gloriously silly, and seems to hark back to a simpler time and a simpler life and serves in the 21^st century to remind us all that everybody takes everything FAR TOO SERIOUSLY. It’s not all work, work, work you know…or at least it shouldn’t be.
