Nineties Revisited: La Di Doh


Original video located here. Accessed 12th August 2023

Song title: La Di Doh

Artist: Ed Kuepper

Year: 1994

Why I like this song:

In listening to Ed Kuepper, it is fascinating to see just how out of step his material is when compared to what else is going on at the time.
And that certainly is the case here: The choice of instruments is striking (harmonica, jaw harp and didgeridoo) and the whole thing is sparse, establishing a mood akin to heading out to the desert.
Through in some lyrics dealing with, what seems to be, distrust and mob rule and we have something that is different and all the better for it.
