In 1973, after almost a decade in Nashville penning songs for others and releasing a couple of increasingly ambitious LPs of his own, Chris Gantry acted the part of a true outlaw and made an album so unconventional and eccentric that no one would release it. Best known outside of Nashville as the author of Glen Campbell’s 1968 hit “Dreams of the Everyday Housewife,” Gantry was a transplanted New Yorker with a beatnik streak who rose through the Music City machine alongside buddies like Kris Kristofferson and Shel Silverstein. Johnny Cash, who had covered his tune “Allegheny,” recognized in the young singer/songwriter a fellow maverick chafing within country music’s commercial parameters and offered him a publishing deal and free rein of his home studio, House of Cash.
…Released in 1986, Matt Bianco introduced a new line-up of the U.K.-based continental jazz-pop group; vocalist Basia and keyboardist Danny White had both left the group (the duo would collaborate on every Basia solo album afterward); vocalist Mark Reilly subsequently recruited Mark Fisher, who’d played keyboards for Wham!, to share creative responsibilities in the band. Vocalist Jenni Fisher was added for an extra spark, though she left the band before the release of Matt Bianco.
The album’s more contemporary, synth-driven sound helped the record out-chart its predecessor, putting lead single ‘Yeh Yeh’ (a cover of the Georgie Fame chart-topper) into the U.K. Top 20. Reilly and Fisher continued to record and tour as Matt Bianco until a one-off reunion with Basia and…
…White in 2003; Fisher joined afterward and continued to work with Reilly until his passing in 2016.
The deluxe edition of Matt Bianco, which like previous Cherry Pop-released expansions of Basia and Matt Bianco’s work was produced for release by Vinny Vero, is an all-out release that’ll have you dancing in the street! This two-disc affair includes the remastered original album as it appeared on CD, appended with another seven single versions and B-sides. The bonus disc includes another 14 remixes and live tracks, all of which are either released here for the first time or making their debut on CD. Highlights include an undiscovered extended version of “It’s Getting Late” (from the band’s debut Whose Side Are You On?) that was potentially earmarked for a B-side release, several live rarities and every mix of “Love Situation,” the one-off single released by Mark Fisher and vocalist Dotty Green the year before he joined the band.
Disc 1: Original album (released as WEA WX 35 (U.K.)/Atlantic 81659 (U.S.), 1986) and bonus tracks
