Electrocution of the Word

An early music video for a very early Bruce Cockburn composition, directed by Morley "Monkeys in the Attic" Markson. A bit heavy on the religious symbolism, guys. I don't think Bruce likes this. Filmed for, or at least shown at, a pavilion at the Ottawa EX in 1969; the track is otherwise unreleased. Home transfer from 16mm original.
