Stephin Merritt (Magnetic Fields) has long been a Foxx fan and lists Metamatic among the albums that have influenced him most.
An ambitious new album is due out on March 10th, 2017.
Called 50 Song Memoir, it is an 'autobiographical' album that traces his career and influences in 50 songs.
The lead song is
"83 Foxx and I", and Nonesuch Recordshave just issued a wonderful video to accompany the track.
