Used CD ・Condition: B ・Disc Condition: B The ultimate best-of album, "Encore (Nomi's Best)," by the eccentric Klaus Nomi, who took the world by storm in the early 80s. Released in 1983 / Contains 13 tracks Born in Immenstadt (Southern Germany) in 1944 and raised in West Berlin, Klaus Sperber loved opera and rock music. After moving to New York in 1972, he eventually found a stage for his artistic expression in local cabarets. His looks and voice reflected the mainstream of the New Wave scene, and he exuded the vibe of Andy Warhol's Factory era. He performed at venues like Max's Kansas City (a New York nightclub and restaurant), surrounded by friends from the underground scene. Filled with a 1950s sci-fi feel, he built a unique world with his monochrome, sharp-angled costumes and his extraordinary voice, leading to a flurry of performance offers. However, his career took off explosively after meeting David Bowie. In 1979, David Bowie, in the midst of his Berlin period, quickly took notice of the promising eccentric. He selected Nomi as a backup singer for a special on NBC TV's "Saturday Night Live," making him an overnight sensation. In 1980, he released his long-awaited debut single, "Keys of Life." In 1981, he released his first album, "Opera Rock," expanding his activities. The following year, in 1982, he released his second album, "Simple Man." However, he was already infected with HIV around this time, and he passed away from AIDS on August 6, 1983, in a New York hospital at the age of 39, a one-of-a-kind artist.
