The
Wurzels Release A Tribute To Adge Cutler!
|
|
November
30th 2009 saw the release of the latest Wurzels single “Ode
To Adge”.
This is the band’s first single release since 2007 when
we were treated to two in one year - the charity release of
“I am A Cider Drinker 2007”,when they were joined
by DJ Tony Blackburn, was followed by the release of a new and
upbeat version of “One for the Bristol City”.
“Ode To Adge” is a wonderful heart warming tribute
to the farmyard four’s founder, Adge Cutler. Adge, who
was tragically killed in 1974, was and indeed still is the main
inspiration that keeps the Wurzels entertaining us all and this
new song has gentle overtones of Adge’s ‘Twice Daily’
and is interweaved with many of his well-known lyrics.
The narrative of Adge’s life story is divided into segments
by the lively and catchy chorus all carefully and lovingly written
by the Wurzel’s own Pete Budd and musically arranged by
Cruisin’ Music’s Louie Nicastro.
The new single is also a first for the Wurzels in that it is
only available via internet download – now what would
dear old Adge have made of that! He would probably have taken
it in his stride; after all, he did advocate putting a Somerset
man into space to join the space race back in 1967, stating
that “we should keep up with all they modern things an’
that!”
