Isobel Makes Love Upon National Monuments - Jake Thackray video free download

Jake Thakery is like Marmite, in that, you either love him or you hate him. I'm with the former, albeit I only have one of his albums.

Brilliant and very scenic, but - alas! It's the wrong Prince Albert (and how often have I heard those words) at 2:49.

I first heard this song on CBC; I guess it was on "Eclectic Circus"--such funny rambling introductions to the show...vacuumland...listeners of the first water... I have just passed this on to a friend in Kazakhstan--another tick in Jake's international catalogue. And I, too, always have a rhyme in mind when he sings "conductor!"

Oh great.... thanks... i laughed though.... does this mean i can't be offended?? lol silly git :D

This suddenly came on while listening to 6 music. I felt it needed to be shared.

Ooh, I was waiting for a naughty phrase to rhyme with "conductor" ...

@robinvaucelles Clyde Gilmour used to play him on his weekly radio show on CBC. Another good one is: The Red Velvet Steering Wheel Cover Driver

Neil Gaiman tweeted this recently.

@Philsh21 It crossed my mind, but there are libel laws...

Brilliant! Thanks for this. I was waiting for a picture of a bright-eyed young archdeacon.

Thank you so much for posting this. I won't tell anyone about Prince Albert Victor. I saw the late Jake Thackray at the Kings Head (Islington). A true national treasure.
