Trials of Eyeliner: The Anthology 1979 / 2016
Marc Almond
Released: 2016
Trials Of Eyeliner sees three distinct themes – History showcases Marc’s favourites, album tracks and B-sides over four cds recounting Soft Cell’s The Girl With The Patent Leather Face (a track which is simply stunning in its naiveté and roughness), Sex Dwarf and Meet Murder My Angel as well as one of his finest moments Catch A Fallen Star (Marc And The Mambas). It also introduces us to Jacques Brel, the Belgian writer and actor considered to be the master of modern chanson with The Devil (Okay), a writer who along with Scott Walker was a major influence. Almonds version of Brel’s Jackie (Jacky), which was also recorded by Walker, remains one of the finest pop songs ever and rewarded him with a top 20 hit in 1991.
