Before Michael Jackson or Elton John wowed us with their fashion sense, Liberace laid down the sequined cape for future generations of flamboyant tunesmiths to sashay across. This rhinestone-studded shrine (like its subject) spares no expense in displaying the world of Liberace to flashiest advantage. Features include an extensive biography and interior photos of his homes, outfits, pianos, and jewelry. The site's curator, the (ironically) humbly named Bob, even owns a few pieces of clothing that once graced the frame of "Mr. Showmanship" himself. The truly obsessed can marvel over the used toothpick and mint wrappers our man Bob found in the satin smoking jacket he purchased. Bob lovingly lays out a handful of Lib-links, as well as a thoughtful collection of AIDS-related ones.
