Compilation of German countertenor Klaus Nomi’s best recordings. • Contains the singles from his two studio albums plus two songs unavailable elsewhere: “Can’t Help Falling In Love” and “Der Nissbaum.” • Long out-of-print in the U.S. Bavarian born Klaus Sperber emigrated to New York City in 1972, and soon became a staple in the East Village art scene, adopting the new last name of Nomi (fashioned after the popular science magazine Omni). After working on a production with Kristian Hoffman, whose band Mumps were playing Max’s Kansas City and CBGB, the two began working together—with Hoffman writing originals and picking cover versions of popular songs that would showcase Nomi’s multi-octave vocal range. This compilation of Klaus Nomi best was first issued shortly after he passed away due to AIDS, includes his best known recordings and two songs unavailable elsewhere. Additionally, this collection contains the live version of “Total Eclipse” from Urgh! A Music War.
