David Bowie 1966 Marquee Club The Showboat Interview Over The Wall We Go Oscar

[tonbridgeroy]

I thought I'd pretty much heard everything Bowie but this is NEW to me

1:34 What the Heck?

He wrote some bloody rubbish in his early years, like this. Bowie we know didn't really get going till "The Man Who Sold The World" in 1971.

Incidentally, the catchpharse back then was "Over the wall we go, all coppers are bastards!", lyrics changed for possible radio play

[drees71]

If you listen to Kate Bush's There Goes A Tenner, you can hear the direct influence.

[zenobowie]

m a fan since the man who sold the world the first alb I bought in 71.In the 70s, most fans loved alternative music , The general public thought he was weird and couldn't place him His commercial but as a musician less interesting years,the 80s, made​him more acceptable Facebook I have never met so many mainstream music loving DB fans Everything with the name DB is suddenly something amazing DB was influenced and assisted by musicians not many DB fans want to know,rather hypocritical !

[steviea427]

@zenobowie I understand. No artist can control how he is viewed by fans. Artists do what they do and then it is out of their hands. You have something special in regards to Bowie and should treasure it like a secret. At least some of the new fans will get into Bowie enough to learn all about him. That is the way it goes.

[zenobowie]

@steviea427 you're right and I am pleased when the later DB fan is also interested in the man,music his musical preferences and who have influenced him than just the name and image !!Through DB I got to know other great musicians like Brian Emo ,Robert Fripp,or Trent Rezor of NIN even Tricky or Placebo (DB is a big fan of Tricky) But on Facebook there are not many they prefer the easy stuff,that is what I don't understand,Good music takes longer to get used to The Fragile or Outside

[steviea427]

@zenobowie There will be a few who get it...not many...never are. Each generation will produce a few true artists and a lot of crap. It has probably been that way since the beginning of time. In the meantime just fly your flag and hopefully someone will be turned-on to the good stuff.

David is 19 years old here.

[matthewcollins57]

Is this really the same guy who wrote Life on Mars?

[DorrisDiaz]

@matthewcollins57 - He did write some very unlikely stuff. have you listened to 'The Laughing Gnome'? Bowie is capable of the very best and the very worst.... thank God the former triumphed!

[DBCrowns]

@matthewcollins57 yes

[c1mcg1battyflex]
