DAVID BOWIE
* BBC SESSION
Miscel TAPE(?gen)
9.5 BBC Studios
From a radio show featuring lots of Bowie's (live) recordings he did
over the years for the BBC. Some are kinda wimpy tunes ('Love You Till
Tuesday' e.g.) but there most of them are real gems.
In the Velvet Underground cover 'White Light / White Heat' Bowie
references Lou Reed.
This tape is now a bit superseded with the officially
release 'Bowie At The Beeb' set (which I can recommend btw.)
Tracks:
Side 1:
White Light-White Heat / Love You Till Tuesday / In The Heat Of The
Morning / Let Me Sleep Beside You / I'm Waiting For The Man / Looking
For A Friend / Kooks / Ziggy Stardust / Starman / Andy Warhol / Rock 'N
Roll Suicide
Side 2:
If There Was Something / Moonage Daydream
* ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS "LIVE"

10 Santa Monica Civic Auditorium
Great old (complete) Bowie show, with the late Mick
Ronson doing some fantastic guitar playing. The show was broadcast
on FM-radio so the sound is the best you can get for something this
age. In between two electric sets, Bowie plays some awesome acoustic
songs.
Tracks;
Intro / Hang On To Yourself / Ziggy Stardust / Changes / The
Superman / Life On Mars / Five Years / Space Oddity / Andy Warhol
/ My Death
Awaits / The Width Of A Circle / Queen Bitch / Moonage Daydream
/ John I'm
Only Dancing / Waiting For The Man / the Jean Genie / Suffragette
City / Rock
'n Roll Suicide / Closing
