  1. Valley of Song was every bit as wonderful as I thought it would be. It's the first time, though, that I ever saw a Novello play without any of his own songs. Christopher Hassall did such a good job finishing it that I couldn't tell where one man's work ended and the other's began. What really touched my heart, though, is that this took place in Wales, where Ivor was born. More so, was that some of the songs I know as a fact were sung by the Royal Welsh Ladies Choir, and probably by the Novello Davis Choir, both of which were conducted by his mother. It is the closest I will ever come to hearing them, other than one recording I have under another conductor. I almost cried when they sang Ar Hyd y Nos (All Through the Night), which I know they sung and even recorded in 1915 (I don't have it). And of course, there was a beautiful love story, too, as always.

  2. Toll fände ich ja, wenn man die Sroll-Richtung im #Ivory auf Wunsch umstellen könnte, also Neues erscheint unten. Ich bin mehr so ein nach-unten-scroll-Typ.

  3. A lovely cover of an Ivor Cutler song: John E. Flamingeaux — flamingeaux.bandcamp.com/track
    (free download). The original was meant to be in The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour, but was cut before broadcast.

    This cover is by a bunch of Hamburg bluegrass musicians, and is clearly influenced by Nic Jones' wonderful live cover.

    Ivor would have been 101 today ...

  4. Now that I have pretty much decided on #ivory for mastodon, now it’s onto RSS apps

    I pretty much switch between #unread and #reeder

    Unread looks great but once I get a larger backlog, reeder seems to do a better job with managing feeds

    Support for reeder has always been a bit lacking though.

  6. It seems like #Ivory didn't want to update my home timeline anymore so I've got about a day of #poots to catch up on 🙄🦣

  7. Cool (new?) tags feature in #ivory: a note of how often it’s been used in the last 7 days. This is quite helpful. #Apple #iPhoneApps #iPadApps #Mastodon

  8. After a week of use, I gotta say that #IvoryApp has the best experience, hands down. Intuitive and easy - just damn pleasant to use. Totally worth $2/mo.

    I like #TuskerApp and wanted to like it more but it acts weird regularly on my phone and doesn’t get the latest toots or only shows 20-ish new toots then nothing more.

  9. #IvoryApp is promising - and mostly because it has #GIFs, something my #GenX butt values (i say GenX because I hear the kids aren’t into gifs).

    But I’m not seeing an app that’s much better than #TuskerApp, except for the gifs.

    And the #IceCubesApp is just buggy.

  10. Installed #IvoryApp to see if it was as good as folks have been gushing about. Immediately turned off that I can’t post without being on a free trial. Their pricing is ok ($2/mo or $25/y, and devs deserve to get paid) but why irritate people right off the bat?

    Also trying #IceCubesApp, and posting this in #TuskerApp. We’ll see which one ends up working the best for me & how my brain works.

  11. I was trying out #IvoryApp like everyone else today and also came across #TuskerApp. Noticed that it has a “Draw something” feature when you go to compose a post. Not sure how often I’d use something like that but I haven’t seen that before. Kinda cool.

  13. I tried three times (twice yesterday) to post this through #Ivory and three times it’s eaten my post. So here I am on the website, old school stylee.

  16. Ok, ich gebe zu, Ivory fühlt sich im Handling schon verdammt gut an. Die Probewoche kann man sich ja mal gönnen. Mal schauen, ob es mir die 1,99€ im Monat dann immer noch wert sind. #ivory #tapbots #mastodonapp #neueswagen #neueapp

  21. @Ivor yes and the light is really pink. These are unfiltered - the first to the north east and the second to the west #WestWales

  22. In praise of #ivorcutler

    I was recently made aware of the wonder poet, raconeteur, eccentric, and otherwise brilliant individual, Ivor Culter.

    He knocked around with the likes of the Beatles, back in his heyday.

    The song ("song", in the sense of most of his work involved a harmonium) which I like is called #shoplifters which is about people who lifted up a shop, rather than robbed from it. See:

    youtu.be/wuAM5IRgxm0?si=kZd0ij

    Note that this comes from the "Ivor Cutler Trio" -- a mono-version (i.e., just Ivor), can be seen here:

    youtu.be/bVNvC2sNxio?si=By_koT

    I wish I had known of him sooner.

    For more general information, see:

  23. Really appreciating some of the usability tweaks in #Ivory. Like separate #mentions and #notifications tabs, boosts being separated out on profile pages, and consistent spacing of action buttons on iPad regardless of window size.

    It may only be an ‘early access’ version, but #Ivory seems more fully featured than many long-established #Mastodon apps! 👏 🐘
