Description: | Limited 180gm picture disc vinyl LP pressing. Original soundtrack to the documentary film based on the life of British musician Chris Sievey AKA Frank Sidebottom. Frank Sidebottom was one of a kind, a surrealist, a performance artist, a grown man in his 30s whose mum didn't know he was a pop star. Appearing on kids TV shows, in comics, in front of drunken audiences, Frank was a legend. His takes on Queen, Kylie and The Fall are incredible in their depth, breadth and silliness. His onstage battles with his cardboard sidekick Little Frank would have Freud reaching for his Ventalin. The whole act was joyous, bizarre and very, VERY funny. Frank was the alter ego of frustrated pop star Chris Sievey. Chris was a poet, musician and leader of cult group The Freshies. The band sniffed the faint aroma of chart success once with their indie classic 'I'm In Love With The Girl On The Manchester Megastore Check Out Desk'. It's the greatest pop hit that never was. In an attempt to sell more Freshies records, Chris gave birth to Frank (which I imagine would be tricky with a head that size) and Frank went on to take over the world. Well, Timperley at least. Being Frank - The Chris Sievey Story is a beautiful movie that's been years in the making. Director Steve Sullivan has crafted a stunning and honest account of both Chris and Frank that is most definitely not bobbins. |
