He's just too fuckin good! and what's that axe? looks like a 1954 Gretsch 6129 Silver Jet, with twin Fender Showmans? and a space echo tape delay machine (looks like) on top. Singing like that all night is not easy, let me tell you...
Bowie first encountered Taylor at the Giaconda cafe on Tottenham Court Road in 1966. "He was the inspiration for Ziggy. Vince Taylor was a rock n roll star from the Sixties who was slowly going crazy. Finally, he fired his band and went on-stage one night in a white sheet. He told the audience to rejoice, that he was Jesus. They put him away." - Bowie (1976)

kowalchuk311...The Clash didn't write it...The original is from the early 60's..A great song written by Vince Taylor and the Playboys...check it out...Vince Taylor was a black leather clad dude that mainly did covers but he was a dancin fool...FUN stuff...He burnt out on acid early and was the inspiration for Bowie's Ziggy Stardust...
Ooh !! He does it faster, Clash style. I 've seen him doing this more like Vince Taylor. Of course, he added a bit of peter gunn & James Bond in the middle.
Setzer fucking rules man! Love that sparkly ass Gretsch too! Hahaha

Ziggy wore no leather...he was a glam queen. I fail to see the connection w Vince Taylor.

This is actually a cover of the Clash version. Brian and Joe Strummer were great friends. That is where this comes from....nowhere else.
