Topic: Mudlark


In the News (Mon 6 Jul 09)

  
  Mudlark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Becoming a mudlark was a cry of desperation as it is considered one of the worst "jobs" in history.
Mudlarks would be lucky if they made a penny a day selling what they had found during low tide, which was the only time people could scavage along the shores of the rivers.
Mudlark is another name for the bird Magpie-lark.

 Mudlark - Edited by William Slaughter : Zine O Rama : Pif No. 37 - June 2000   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
If the current Mudlark fails to strike your fancy, you would be remiss not to surf through a couple of back issues.
When he does (and those moments are rare), he quickly retreats to a suitable narrative distance, using careful description and, again, precise portraiture to let the scene at hand speak for itself.
In between issues, Mudlark publishes what Slaughter calls "posters" and "flash poems." Like the issues themselves, "posters" also feature selections from a single poet, only they are much shorter (3 or 4 poems), best described, perhaps, as the electronic equivalent of broadsheets.

 Leo Kottke - Mudlark: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
Most importantly, Mudlark marked the debut of Kottke as a singer, an indication that Capitol was trying to shoehorn him into the singer/songwriter genre.
Versatility is paramount, from the down-home high-speed picking of "Cripple Creek" to the steely bottleneck slide work on "June Bug" to the Baroque classicism of "Bourrée" by J.S. Bach, all of it wrapped by Kottke's wry, surreal wit.
A landmark early album, Mudlark increased Kottke's visibility and helped establish his reputation as a homegrown American original.

 The Fred Report
Modern recording equipment has shown that the most similar sound to the Mudlark Thrush’s song is a mule being pulled by the ears into another, more painful dimension.
You may not have heard about the Mudlark Thrush, the Black Hills’ most unique flying specimen, and you wouldn’t be the only one to have been ignorant of their prior existence.
