{"product_id":"klaus-nomi_simple-man_2020_son","title":"Simple Man","description":"A singer with an exceptional tessitura (from bass-baritone to countertenor), at ease on stage surrounded by a New Wave band or performing a Purcell aria, with an ethereal, alien-like look that captivated crowds, European but living in New York, Klaus Nomi was a complex and talented individual. In 1979, David Bowie, then in his Berlin period, had, as was his custom, perceived the emerging phenomenon almost before anyone else.\nKlaus Nomi was undoubtedly the first \"famous\" victim of AIDS in the music world. What was then called \"gay cancer,\" an unfortunate name reflecting the misunderstanding of this newly appeared disease, struck down this atypical artist at the peak of his glory: platinum and gold records, ecstatic concert halls, a fascinated fashion world: Klaus experienced a meteoric rise between '79 and '82. Then he returned to his planet, wherever it may be...\nTo mark the 40th anniversary of Klaus Nomi's passing, Sony Music \/ Legacy is reissuing his complete official discography.\nHis two studio albums \"Klaus Nomi\" and \"Simple Man\" on CD digipak \/ LP. The first album on ultra-limited cassette.\nHis 1986 album \"In Concert\" for the first time on CD Digipak.\nHis compilation \"Encore: Nomi's Best\" for the first time on CD Digipak and again on vinyl.\nA magnificent limited edition 4LP Deluxe box set in a rigid slipcase is also available, exclusively including the \"In Concert\" vinyl.","brand":"Klaus Nomi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55313186259288,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0194397506310.jpg?v=1760395524","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/klaus-nomi_simple-man_2020_son","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
