Michael Picasso-Live at the Village Underground

[ravennri]

Way to make me cry! Thanks for this. Beautiful with the clips of Mick. Sweetest man I ever met. RIP Mick.

this song still gives me chills but with the Ronno video in this ---oooof

RIP Mick----my guitar hero and from all accounts, a really sweet, nice man

[Ljotulfson]

I was fortunate to see him at the Manchester Free Trade Hall in 1973 with David Bowie and the Spiders, 74 (solo), and 75 with Ian Hunter. He was an incredible musician and showman whom we have sorely missed since his tragic death in 1993. He lives on in his wonderful recordings and our memories. Looking forward very much to the forth-coming documentary this autumn.

This song was part of my eulogy to another great rocker, a nice man, and a good friend to have had, Carey Kress.

[ronfrankl]

What better way to say goodbye to your best friend? An amazing song.

I was there and may be briefly in the video as I spent most of the gig directly in front of Andy York. As I recall, George Harrison had passed the night before and Ian dedicated the song to the Harrison family. I believe this was also played at the start of the "encore" set. However, given the size of the stage (tiny) and the size of the crowd (capacity), it was a logistical problem getting on and off the stage. As a result, the band never left before the encores.

OMFG

Wonderful... AND there's a clip from the gig(s) Ronno did at the Rainbow, Finsbury Park (in '74/'75?). I was there, and this really does put things through the time-warp... any more from that (Moonage Daydream?).

Mick is always was an Angel.

[cadhamjer]

I cannot listen to this song without crying. It's simply the most beautiful tribute I have ever heard.

[springycfc123]

I was lucky enough to see him 3 times,once in 73 at Earls court in the Ziggy/Alladin sane tour and 79 and 91 or 92 both at the Hammersmith Odeon.A very emotional song.Hunter is some poet!! Ronno will be with me for ever!

[Hyrslap]

Mick Ronson was and will always be BEAUTIFUL.

Thanks, lovely song, I cried.

[fujitsu1522]

I photographed Ian In Manchester, acouple of years ago, a friend of mine called for the track, one of the most moving moments I have ever seen, Ian was upset, and had to go of stage for a minute, he returned giving one of the best performances I have ever seen by him. thanks Ian for a great night, and thank artist like yourself, Mick, David, and the rest of the gang. you have given music so much, I am 50years old next year, and followed you guys for a long time. thanks

[MRonnoRonson]

[oakfieldfirecracker]

Still brings a lump to the throat when this is played

Its hard to believe how much time has already passed since Micks departure. Fitting tribute penned by the master about the maestro.

[daveyx5]
