About this audio guide
This guide to the Centre for Contemporary Arts on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow follows three July nights in nineteen seventy-seven, when the Govan-born humorist Ivor Cutler stood in this building and read his own childhood aloud while a Radio Clyde engineer kept the tape rolling. Along the way you'll meet Tom McGrath, the jazz pianist and underground editor who ran the Third Eye Centre here, and the poets and comedians who passed through. Best heard on the pavement facing the Greek Thomson facade.
