Matt Berry: an incomparable musical adventure

Matt Berry - the IT Crowd, Garth Marenghi, Toast etc and maker of 10 delightfully psychedelic albums - grew up in a home with only two records, Gladys Knight and Status Quo, neither ever played. But there was a tape of "sporting bloopers". His voyage through pop music was unusual and extraordinary. Abba's music was profoundly sad. Kate Bush was "frightening". His first gig was a French instrumentalist in Docklands. This touches on Mike Oldfield, '70s TV themes, Gary Numan ("who had the last laugh"), obscure psychedelia, making music that sounds like it was recorded underwater and his present from Jean Michel Jarre. Matt’s 55-track 10th anniversary career-spanning 5LP or 4CD box set, Gather Up, is released on November 26 … smarturl.it/MB_GatherUp spaces.hightail.com/space/nWeQxZpQfi/files   @porksmith   @MattBerryMusic   themattberry.co.uk/   www.amazon.co.uk/CDs-Vinyl-Matt-Berry/s?rh=n%3A229… Become a Word In Your Ear Patreon subscriber and gain access to each Word In Your Attic before the rest of the world - plus a whole load more!: www.patreon.com/wordinyourear
