Trained as an opera singer and moved to New York in 1973. Wearing thick white makeup and outlandish clothes, he quickly became a fixture on the underground scene in the early 1980s, performing original songs and quirky arrangements of cover versions of everything from arias to pop music as a countertenor. David Bowie heard rumors of his performance and asked him to design costumes and sing in the back chorus for a special on NBC TV's \"Saturday Night Live. He released his first album in 1981 and his second in 1982, but by this time, AIDS had already taken its toll on his body. His works are reissued to commemorate the 40th anniversary of his death.This is the second album released in 1982 and the last work of the group.
