Being Frank The Chris Sievey Story

Description: Being Frank The Chris Sievey Story Original Soundtrack 180G Black Vinyl LP Record Factory Sealed LP 7a Records is thrilled to be releasing the soundtrack to the brand new award winning documentary 'Being Frank The Chris Sievey Story'. Frank Sidebottom was one of a kind, a surrealist, a performance artist, a grown man in his 30's who's mum didn't know he was a pop star. Appearing on kids TV shows, in comics, in front of drunken audiences, Frank (who some said had a papier mache head, although I never bought that story) 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 A Certain 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. Filmed in collaboration with Sievey's closest friends and family, the film features previously unseen footage, unheard performances and lost tracks, the best of which you get to hear on this album. You don't have to be a fan of Chris or Frank to enjoy this movie and soundtrack. You just have to be interested in the odd, the loner, the creative, the outsider. This is a beautiful film and a wonderful soundtrack. SIDE 1 1. Cello Man - Chris Sievey - Chris Sievey 2. Gogglebubbleland - Martin & Chris - Martin & Chris 3.
