Buying Information

So, you've seen lists of Ivor Cutler's works and, understandably, you want to buy some, if not all of it. The information on this page should help a little, although much of his work is unavailable or difficult to find.

Peter Hesketh advertised in the magazine Record Collector for Ivor Cutler material and received quite a few replies. May I suggest that if you do the same, you pass on the details of replies that you do not need, possibly via the newsgroup alt.fan.ivor-cutler.

Other Addresses

For more information, try writing to:
The Ivor Cutler Mailing List, Arts Theatre, Great Newport Street, LONDON, WC2H 7JA
I understand that this is where his agent, David Jones is/was based.

To contact Ivor Cutler, you could try writing to one of his publishers, e.g. Reed Books.
Also, John Peel might still forward stuff sent c/o him at the BBC. So you could email John Peel at john.peel@bbc.co.uk...
