Barry Morgan is the eponymous character in Barry Morgan's World of Organs, a stage show based on a fictional electronic organ salesman from Adelaide portrayed by Australian musician and comedian Stephen Teakle. Barry Morgan's World of Organs has appeared at the New Zealand International Comedy Festival[1] and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival,[2] and has been a guest on ABC1's Spicks and Specks,[3] ABC2's The Marngrook Footy Show and on FIVEaa radio.

Background

Campari-drinking[4] Morgan owns Barry Morgan's World of Organs, a fictional, kitsch organ emporium in Adelaide's Sunnyside Mall.[3][5] He plays a 1981 Hammond Aurora Classic organ[1] through a Leslie speaker, and demonstrates the organ's abilities as a synthesizer, the Auto Vari 64 (for adding variation to the accompaniment) and the Zither arpeggiator.[1] He is the proponent of the "one finger method" to control his organ's accompaniment section.[4]

Barry Morgan's World Of Organs is also cited by Australian cult sonic psychology band "Organ Grinder" (featuring members from noted Australian heavy metal bands Misery and Vegas Rhythm Kings). The band cites Morgan's World of Organs as their number 1 supplier in all things musical.[6]
