R. Stevie Moore - Phonography (1976)

R. Stevie Moore is on one hand part of the lo-fi outsider art scene (which is not really a scene, more a collection of musicians who are alltogether quite weird), and on the other hand he creates melodies and riffs on his electronic instruments (most often keyboards and synthesizers) that are so incredibly catchy that artists like Todd Rundgren and Big Star would be quite jealous of Moore's gift of creating melodies. Todd Rundgren and Big Star aren't half bad either by the way, but still.

R. Stevie Moore is the son of Elvis Presley's long-time sideman and bassist, Bob Moore. He has self-released over 400 CD-R's, cassettes, home videos and a lot more. This album can be considered as his commercial peek. It's the only album that's really remembered by a lot of people as of today. Unfortunately.

The son of legendary Music City session musician Bob Moore (not Elvis guitarist Scotty Moore, as many articles mistakenly claim) and the older brother of Linda Moore, singer/bassist for '80s country-pop band Calamity Jane, Robert Steven Moore was born January 18, 1952, in Nashville, TN.
