Song from Peter Blegvad's seriously under-rated 'King Strut & Other Stories' album. Peter will be making a rare solo and acoustic appearance at the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival in Suffolk on Saturday 7 November (5.45-6.30pm) - box office 01728 687110. Perhaps best known for his Independent on Sunday comic strip 'Leviathan', Peter is The Poetry Trust's illustrator for 2009 (he's been supplying the visuals for our Festival programme booklet and Poetry Paper) - hence his appearance at The Aldeburgh Poetry Festival this autumn. He'll also be taking part in talks and discussions. More details at www.thepoetrytrust.org.
This might just be my favourite Peter Blegvad song. So beautiful and full of clever play on words.
