After POZI’s Diggers and Squid’s Houseplants, it’s time to dig out an actual gardening connection, about unwanted guest, in a delightfully eccentric offbeat number by the London singer and songwriter. Cyril narrates from his own greedy point of view in the first person, and Myrtle’s style echoes that of a solo Syd Barrett crossed with Boris The Spider by The Who. It almost makes you like the slimy devil. More work by and information on John Myrtle can be found here.
