The Singer (Diamanda Galás album)


The Singer is an album by Diamanda Galás released in 1992, largely featuring her versions of classic blues and gospel songs. The cover art is notable for a glamor shot of the artist, which on closer inspection reveals the words "We are all HIV+" tattooed on her knuckles. The album is dedicated to people with AIDS, as is much of her work.
