I thought this was really interesting. I've just posted some old TV footage from the 1970s with Parkinson's talking about liquorice! Take a look at mrslorrainemorgan s channel!

Jarvis Cocker played this on a radio show once which is why I sought it out. The first track is surprisingly psychedelic but somehow works. Also ahead of his time setting poetry to music like John Cooper Clarke and Linton Kwesi Johnson.

@eyedropper not sure of date but it was much before 1974

Bloody fabulous!

Does anyone know when the poem was actually written, was it 1974

I love it! Sgt Pepper meets The Bonzo Dog Do Dah Band. Sad really because it points to an England long gone. Nostalgic clap trap from me there, the past was never ideal, sometimes it feels like it might've been though... *sighs*
