Been a fan since the 80s. Highly recommend the documentary about his life and career, The Nomi Song.

He's probably best known for his version of Lou Christie's "Lighting Strikes", and an appearance backing David Bowie on SNL, in 1979.

I'll look for the documentary. He was definitely a unique and talented person.
