(.and makes a doll s house comedy club)
John-Luke Roberts has recorded a new comedy album, It Is Better, which he hopes to release on vinyl.
The show – his ninth – was designed to be performed without a live audience, and features its own score.
Plans to record a live LP were scuppered by the pandemic, but Robert explained: ‘I realised my favourite comedy records didn’t have an audience.
‘So I sat down thinking of albums like Sir Henry at Rawlinson End and Ivor Cutler’s Dandruff and grew more and more excited at the prospect. Without an audience, a comedy record can achieve a startling intimacy.’
