Rustic Radio

Last summer, in a ground-breaking piece of rustic radio, Hooting Yard On The Air broadcast a very rare audio excerpt from the BBC's magnificent bumpkin-and-yokel drama Lark Rise To Candleford. In this scene, one of the peasants sprawls next to the drainage ditch and recites Captain Beefheart's “Old Fart At Play” from Trout Mask Replica. It is now available on the most recently-released podcast, or you can listen to it directly, here, without the rest of Mr Key's babbling flummery.
