ANTONY AND THE JOHNSONS - I'm a Bird Now LPLP repress! Mr. Antony is an extraordinary figure. An opulent work with plenty of piano, strings, and above all, an exalted, well trained voice reminiscent somewhere between Marc Almond (Soft Cell) in his later solo period and Bobby Coon. Art music with extremely emotional depth and exceptional guests: Lou Reed (whom he also accompanies on his tours), Devendra Banhart, and Boy George. Art music between pop and cabaret, bedroom and opera stage.
