  • I put this together from a variety of sources of variable quality, some of which was originally silent, and synched it with the version of the song performed live in Santa Monica 1972.
    Play it loud and enjoy!

    I am in 2024!!!!❤
    I can only watch his early/Ziggy performances. Still raw for when he looked more like “David.” The Spiders From Mars were incredible. Mick Ronson was such a gifted musician. Under rated imo. I feel honored to get so much joy from their music-all these years later on.

    I was 16 when my best friend and I attended Bowie's first US show. It was September 22, 1972 at Cleveland's Music Hall in downtown Cleveland. I didn't really know who he was, but the audience sure did! I'd never seen anything like it before - he was amazing, bizarre, fascinating, and held the audience in thrall! Beethoven's 9th symphony, 4th movement (synthesized) and off-beat strobe lights opened the show as Ziggy and the band seemed to just appear on stage out of nowhere! Despite his glam appearance and fey movements, he rocked hard and gave a performance I'll never forget! So glad my sister talked me into going! :)

      I love all of them, including the first 1967 album, except for three. I'll never forget the massive disappointment in playing 'Let's Dance' for the first time (on the day of its release). The next two, 'Tonight' and 'Never Let Me Down', were even worse. I thought he started getting much better on the Tin Machine records and reckon that by 'Outside' he was truly back. I don't think any of the post 'Scary Monsters' albums are as mind-fuckingly awesome as those made during the 1967-'80 run but on all of those post 'Outside' albums there are at least an EPs worth of gems.

I literally had the worst seat in the house. The worst. And throughout the concert, when I looked at David through the binoculars, I swear to God I thought he was looking right at me. I even waved at him, on the off chance he'd wave back (he didn't.) One of the other people I went with had the exact same experience. "It was as though he was looking right at me!" he said. Yup. David could do that. He saw us. It was magic.

    Back in 1974, I played The LP over and over again. On that particuliar song, I remember vividly being struck by the resonance of the words "like a Leper Messiah"... in my ears and brain of a teenage french boy aged 12. Today, thanks to this brilliant footing, I experienced again the thrill of those 3 words. I'm glad to be able to relive such a transient but essential moment of pleasure. And, of course, the whole video is just astounding and out of this world, least you can expect from the Thin White Duke !

Anyone who knows anything about Bowie's early career understands it was Mick who masterminded the sound palette for Bowie's breakthrough albums: The Man Who Sold The World, Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, and Diamond Dogs. Mick also contributed to other Bowie projects including doing string arrangements. He was one of the most respected producers of his era as well. Check out his career achievements and the interviews with Mick at the Hammersmith Odeon theater that were done just a few months before he passed away. He was a gentle, good soul, and a hell of a musician.

Endlessly grateful for the one independent radio station that existed in my area at that time, and their wonderful DJs, who played non-stop Bowie prior to his gig, which was what got me interested enough to buy a ticket for this artist I wasn't yet familiar with! The only other kid from my high school who went was the resident goth girl. We didn't know each other, but I remember exchanging a look of recognition at the show. The gig got me utterly obsessed (especially after buying a copy of Ziggy Stardust The Motion Picture, which I watched dozens of times), and he's still one of my major music heroes to this day. A real genius.

    Love for ever..respect for this genius and the one's he pulled in to play with him, too-like Ronson- this man was an "everything"- a person who they could not pigeon-hole and towards the end, made that art, too- of course. Who would've expected less? But didn't he surprise us. Thank you , David, always. And thank you Mister Sussex, for putting it all together.

      I more or less lost interest when Mick left. He was one of the original Les Paul and Marshall tone meisters. I love the metal edge he added. Man who sold the world was a great album. Now, sorry to say, we have been deprived of them both.

      Love Mick Ronson. Creative guitarist. Not wrapped up in playing 1000 mph like so many 80's players. More about emotion while still playing heavy. Underrated by far. The epitome of "cool". Sucked that he died young.

Thank you Frances Healey for "Space Oddity" and Morag Robertson for the Ziggy album all those years ago. But most of all, thank you, David, for your wonderful music. RIP, my friend.

      Lord Lord "Everybody knows me now." these words from Lazarus, a song that released just before his death. I knew him before he died but I use to listen only one song of his: "The Man Who Sold The World", because of a TV Series called Fringe, there was a scene and in that scene Walter Bishop (a character from the show) played that song so I loved it. But I didn't listen any other song until the May (or April) 2016, I think his death pushed me to listen to his songs. And I read a lot about him in the summer. I loved him and I always will. Whatever. He also caused my discovery of the Beatles, and Beatles caused Beach Boys and many other. I am 15 now and I think I am going to be an artist. Because of him, of course.
