CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
Well, I for one was always (and still am) a huge Moe Koffman fan and have several of his albums (not that one though). He was one of Canada's best jazz musicians (flute/sax).

DeletePS Wait for it - Madam Arcati's going to find it and download it, I bet. Be careful what you wish for 😜
Kellys look terrifying! I remember the look. I wore the look. But I have an excuse... I eight and thought The Partridge Family was a reality show.
ReplyDeleteI was truly, madly, deeply in love with Donny Osmond - complete with that hat - when I was eight, if that's any consolation. Jx
