Please visit the page for our upcoming feature documentary "Jobriath A.D." about 70s glam rock singer Jobriath. It would be great if you could post this link for the Morrissey fans on here, as I'm sure they would be interested in hearing about it. The link is for our kickstarter page, which also includes a link within to our facebook fan page. Thanks much.

Am I the only sane person (Score:2, Interesting)
I'm completely blown away by his music. I stayed away from him for a long time because of what I read here but in making a decision for myself and not following the flow of discourse here - I have yet again found another gem thanks to morrissey.
Heartbeat
Morning Star Ship
Im'a'man
Be still (my favourite)
I love a good fight.
These are all fantastic pop songs and I don't understand why people say he is hard to listen to.
Other artists who Morrissey has introduced me to and opened my eyes to a world of music beyond the daily hum-drum of coldplay, oasis, radiohead blah blah are:
Brian Eno
Brigitte Bardot
Buzzcocks
Cockney rejects
Damien Dempsey
David Bowie
The fall
Gilbert O'sullivan
Klaus nomi
Nico
Orange Juice
Patti Smith
Ramones
Raymonde
Serge Gainsbourg
siouxise and the banshees
THE SLITS
SPARKS
Suede
T.REX
Velvet Underground
There are also so many scattered artists and songs there is no space to mention here
I can say that Under the Influence has been the CD i've had most on rotation for the past years along with songs to be cremated to.
Jobriath is culturally relevant-- Check it out! (Score:2, Interesting)
In the era of Prop 8 and Don't Ask/Don't Tell, Jobriath plays a culturally relevant role as a musical "first" in history.
His music is arresting, to say the least. His story is even more arresting and poignant as well. I agree with previous posts: Morrissey has introduced us all to a whole different world of musical possibilities.
Thanks for taking the time to read this posting. Please check out Jobriath!
Truly,
Ken
