Eccentric artists

[robsco]

One of my favourite eccentrics right now is the weird but wonderful Klaus Nomi, with the most astonishing vocal range I've ever heard. He was never destined to be the next big thing due to his completely outlandish voice, costume and persona, but what a unique talent.

The New York Dolls, a glam rock band consisting of men dressing like women. Like a wilder, stranger T.Rex.

The tortured genius Morrissey, a perennial outsider with a small but obscenely devoted fan base. A rock star who was fascinated with flowers, plant life, and oblique film stars. A unique and truly talented individual.

So, who else here is fascinated by music's eccentrics?

Not fascinated, but entertained quite good, saw "The Tubes" in 1981
