I was a young 15 year old and the concert blew me away, i have seen plenty of the "greats" since but mick ronson will always stand out from the rest, AWESOME is the word
.....Mick never got enough credit for his awesome playing style in my opinion.....I honestly believe David's ego was large enough at the time that he didn't appreciate Mick's playing.....sad
I love this - absolutely beautiful of a place and time that means so much to me. But you gotta admit - this is where Nigel Tufnell was born - watch it again and tell me you don't agree - LOL!!
@LAPhillyBoyVideos =absolutely! I love Mick but he CAN take the ball, run for the goalline & just keep going out of the stadium God love him. TREEmendous style, looks like he invented the rock guitar God role...& the first 'one handed' part of the solo is better (just listen=I'd marry that incredible liquid golden tone & vibrato) than most people's 2 hands (add in the crunching wah-wah punctuation)..but couldve trimmed it. Ergo great producer&tasty crunchy unforgettable song breaks. True stylist
Mick - the masculine foil to Bowie's more effeminate, or whatever you want to call it character. (ie: telling people he was gay, wearing a dress, etc.) Ronno was always athletic looking - even with makeup. When Bowie suggested Mick tell the world he was gay too, he was furious & quit the band (for about 2 minutes) Poor guy - just wanted to play, produce, arrange and generally be the best sideman Bowie could ever DREAM OF. I don't think Bowie appreciated Mick as much as he should have.
@NormanLake1 - Sir: His biography (by Weird & Gilly). I've met them and have the book. Page 67: (Suzi Ronson sez) "David wanted Mick to pretend that he was gay....Mick got really, really, really cross and said, 'No fuckin' way and stormed off. I think he went back up to Hull. David had to talk to back into coming back to London." PS: Unseen TOTP footage released Dec. 21/11. High def, great sound, 100% LIVE, Mick blazing. And, yes, I do know my Mick Ronson facts A - Z.
Awesome springs to mind! Mick Ronson, very much underrated, why is he not in the Music Hall of Fame? Sadly missed. Check him out on his website for all info
Does it for me every time. Best. Guitar. Sound. Ever.

I see...PRETEND being the key word. Thanx, I have moved on to Adrian Belew, for the time being. Mick is NOT far away. Thanx, again, for caring.
