RUFUS
We are absorbing the music of Rufus Wainwright.
He has been on my radar awhile.
After all: young, out, gay man; son of Loudon III and an old favorite Kate McGarrigle.
One could hardly dismiss him. But, I am a hard sell.
Recently I heard his Cigarettes and Chocolate Milk on David Byrne's play list. Stuck. Over and over in the head. I identified. Had to hear more.
So the solution is to buy all the records, right?
So far we are through the first and well into totally memorizing the second.
Poses.
Indeed.
He is a diva.
There is not a lot more to say. It is more to listen to.
I am not very impressed with anyone or anything new. But this guy is very special. Check him out.
