Well, to go along with interesting characters - I thought I'd recognize a 'new find' -- Klaus Nomi.
I'm not sure how I'd never heard of him before. . . . While Nomi somewhat resembles Peewee Herman caught in Fritz Lang's Metropolis, he is an innovative artist with significant gusto from the 80's who may best be described as a 'new wave opera singer' --Like W. Carlos, Nomi blended musical styles - fusing opera & baroque with the 80's rock/synth style & vibe of the time. Sadly Nomi's musical career was short-lived, ending in 1983 with his death stemming from AIDS.
