Rami Fortis is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on July 7, 1954 in Israel.
Rami Fortis is of Iraqi-Jewish and Italian-Jewish origin. He served in the 1973 Yom Kippur war and was influenced by his experiences at the front. He began his musical career in 1975 as a lighting-man in the shows of Tamuz – one of Israel’s prominent rock groups at that time. The band would get him on stage to sing one or two songs in their concerts.
His 1978 debut album, Plonter, is considered a breakthrough in Israeli music. It was regarded as one of the wildest and noisiest albums ever to be recorded in Israel, way ahead of its time. Influenced by such artists as The Clash, Sex Pistols, Iggy Pop and The Ramones, it was characterized by topics and a style that were unfamiliar and unconventional in Israel at the time. A group of his Tel Aviv friends, guitar player Berry Sakharof (with whom Fortis had played in S.O.B), bass player Malka Spigel (who was Fortis’ girlfriend at the time) & singer/ poet Samy Birnbach (who had contributed lyrics to Plonter) formed Minimal Compact in 1981 in Amsterdam. The band established itself as an alternative rock band in Europe, signing to Belgium’s Crammed Records label, making two albums and adding drummer Max Franken. In 1984 Fortis was asked to join and stayed with them up to the first split in 1988. He was part of the line up which produced the band’s two best known albums: Deadly Weapons produced by Tuxedomoon’s Peter Principle and Raging Souls produced by Wire’s Colin Newman. He went on to tour with them extensively in Europe and Japan. Minimal Compact remain notable as the first (mainly) Israeli band to have gained considerable success outside of the country. They had a song (“When I go”) included in Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire soundtrack and had covers designed by Neville Brody and Russell Mills.
