David Bowie & Frank Black - Scary Monsters & Super Creeps

[IrishBoorah]

I like when Frank trust to imitate bowies accent

[veroram19]

SI EL MUNDO TUVIERA MAS BOWIE S Y MAS FRAK S... SERÍA MEJOR, MAS VIVIBLE Y MÁS AMABLE.... LOS AMO



[veroram19]

LOS AMO... SIMPLEMENTE LOS AMO

[seandunx]

Frank Black doesn't give a shit

[TheNewyorkcitybaby]

@seandunx oh yes ! useless.

[georgeslenin]

This is the best Bowie album!

[mmay60046]

Is that the face of Elrond from the Lord of the Rings movie?



[myvoiceismypass]

Mr. Gabrels rocks.

[Kevo216666]

We've put men on the moon and Frank Black and David Bowie on the same stage. We have reached the zenith of human endeavour.

[there4im]

"She had an aura of ruin, she was tired..."

[SuperPais]

The Guitar composition was made by Robert Fripp. Dont drop it.

Ive already saw Frank Black and NIN playing Scary Monsters, which is not a surprise to me, cause many musicians love this song and album (ashes to ashes, its no game, etc ). Fans preffer other albums, but thats cool.

[Captlafl69]

it's not robert fripp?

[organaphus]

@Captlafl69 The guitarist is Reeves Gabrels from Tin Machine-I believe he remained in Bowie's band up until the "Hours..." album.

[organaphus]

Frank and Bowie must be good friends-as well as this perfomance, David covered "Cactus" on the "Heathen" album. Can't go wrong with either of them!

[superlost90]

Bowie and Frank? Man, what a combo!

[TheThroney]

what the heck is that thing lying on the stage floor? can summun tell me?

[RichieMDer]

The only guy who should be playing guitar on this stage is Charles Thompson...

[redbeakman]

I love how frank rolls out in his blue jeans and keds onto a stage with Bowie reverting to a darker Ziggy and the freakshow that comes with it, I think I saw the phantom of the opera strolling off stage.

[camelotgeorge33]

@redbeakman lol i know

[loudampsfastbikes]

i like this guy on guitar the best since Mick Ronson. i like his stuff better than Earl Slick, or Fripp, even the late great SRV.,.. that is some f***n s**T, man, and Frank Black is welcome ANYWHERE as far as this fool here is concerned.

[IJustHitTheFan]

In this clip David's 50years old, Frank's 32.

Look at the way they both look and perform.

Could easily be the other way around!

[MrGrieves1000]

@IJustHitTheFan haha dont hate on charles hes a fuckin genius. bowie knows it and you should too.

[TheThroney]

@IJustHitTheFan well yeah, and franks a pretty heavy guy.. probably doesnt have the energy like david bowie, who is a skinny guy who is big on on-stage theatrics.. where as the pixies / frank black is more of a bar band.. they dont play with theatrics, just go on and play.. so Bowie has the advantage on stage presence i guess

[IJustHitTheFan]

@TheThroney I never thought of the Pixies this way, but Bar Band is right on the spot. :-)

A GENIUS Bar Band, LOL.

And in this vid we see two very different geniuses, gods, meeting. I love it!

[electronicmedium]

@corneliuswashington  Agreed, as so Frank black francis.

[pappabagge]

A-M-AZING! Two of my Brothers!

[Altosequanais]

Quand deux dieux se rencontrent... Fabuleux

[MrArijog]

Trop bon de voir ces deux là sur la même scène !!

[manweller1]

brilliant

[IronManOfficialguy]

Frank Black and David Bowie on one stage? Half of the crowd died from an overload of cool.

[Curdog]

One of the things that I like about David Bowie- one of the MANY things- is his fine taste in EVERYTHING.

[sagan1976]

If ever there was an Icon in rock music, Bowie's it!

[chaostribbles]

@sagan1976 Actually, between Ziggy Stardust and Alladin Sane, he is several rock icons.

[11dead11ray11]

Very nice song !!!

[greeenroooom]

This is incredible! One of the MOST ORIGINAL Songs ever!

[manweller1]

wow love this tune.

[PieceofMindmusic]

there voices match perfectly!

[39chevpickup]

where is Joey

[corganite7]

stellar

[lesassassins]

reeves gabrels is my favorite bowie guitarist, and the 90s my favorite bowie era.

[eltomuzo]

love it to death but yeah ... altho that guy's a great guitarist he should be a bit more tasteful ... he IS playing for Bowie after all not some crappy heavy metal band :p

[zachtblauw]

Yay for Frank Black!

[addalee]

Thanks for posting this... awesome.. 2 of my favorite all time musicians

[sbarsiniestro]

too much "riffs" for frank

[fclavijo]

de plain

[fzkny]

She asked for my love and I gave her a dangerous mind

Now she's stupid in the streets and she can't socialize. Awesome!

[ragozhin]

charles scream was better than that pretentious guitar solo!

[arabiansanchez]

How can an instrumental be pretentious?

[AAR182]

lol i don't know why everyone hates Reeves Gabrels so much. I think he's a great guitarist.

[Nedzorz1]

I agree. Gabrels may have helped saved Bowie from the depths of the 80s.

[BonScottAC]

Didn't the guitarist try to kill Mad Max when they were defending the gas outpost.

[jjamo5]

pmsl yea man ha ha

[blashuvec]

oh my god listen closely to the frank black screams at 4:55 till the end

[blashuvec]

the guitarist is kinda annoying but i love the song

[piinus]

I know like ...not following the spirit or the feel. I wish theres a remake

[DideeKawaii]

The guitarist does more or less the same thing on the record. I have no idea what you're talking about.

[piinus]

Well nobody knows what your talking about since I got a one thumbs up and you got two down.

[nedzroz]

Weird. I love everything that Bowie did with Gabrels.

[replicas79]

brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KurdtKobain09]

omg..

i didnt no david bowie sucked THIS much!

[lalalovering]

i remember a video of bowie and frank black doing fashion? is that video still around?

[rockerbike64]

barbaro flaco, para mi este tema es el mejor del aniversario, gracias por ponerlo

[zukuzukuzukuzuku]

oh shit! black and bowie!

[Sileah]

Amazing version, realy!

[Mimistardust]

Fantastique!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[jjamo5]

Anyone know who the guitarist is?

Please!!! :-)

[churrascopictures]

Reeves Gabrels.

[kaninz]

Sounds a lot like Robert Fripp.

[Kubrickfan1]

Fripp did the riff on the albun

[intuitioncoach]

sounds like adrian belew

[jocksoff]

seems like bowie has a long history of "falling out" with his band members...

[seandunx]

Well maybe if they weren't all assholes, am I right?

[fantasticvoyages]

Real shame David and Reeves fell out...

[cmartinmacias]

Great song and incredible show! David Bowie rules!

[donmandarin]

Fuck. Everything about that made me remember how good it can be to live on this earth.

geniuses. Every one of them

[miamorporsativa28]

LOco... aca dos grosos del Rock!!!!

Aguante el aguante!!!

Lo mejor.

[Vivamigeneral]

David Bowie is a real genius. He could have won a place in history with only one of the albums released in the '70's. He had vision, he saw many things most artists saw many years later. He created a unique style, which was copied and is still being copied now by a lot of artists who don't even know they're copying a style. The pop world must worship him for all the eternity. In a ranking of the most influential pop artists he's no 3, after The Beatles and Andy Warhol.

[cieggou]

andy warhol is velvetunderground ,right?

[Vivamigeneral]

Yes, he gave shape to the group but he wasn´t part of it.

[crudbudrules]

Whoa, the guitar player is Awesome!!!!

[wwgt]

In my humble opinon..

Much Love to DB...

for giving FB .....prop's..

however , song for song..

FB ...kicks, DB"s collective butt

maybe not commercially.

but that is why DB,, had Frank Black on stage

many kudos to both Artiste's...

much love to all..

[beelzabubba]

This "Bowies" 50th birthday from Madison Square Garden kicks ass. I have it all on VHS. Copies are available for 3000 pounds UK. If you're wondering how much that is in American dollars... well, it's probably enough to fuck up your rent payment... about 1900 dollars US. The best thing to do is never buy into someone elses'nightmare... save your money and save your soul...

[thesquirrel90]

Actually 3000 pounds is almost 6000 dollars US XD But the concert can be downloaded from the internet, it's available.

[beelzabubba]

I thank you much for that correction and update. I still don't understand why it is not released on DVD... It's one of the best concerts I've ever seen....

[thesquirrel90]

You're welcome :D

And I agree. It's just fantastic.

[moonfish1967]

yes this easily my favourite concert of all time...and i've got plenty. does ANYONE know where i can get hold of this 50th bday 1997 concert on dvd or even vhs? i'm hanging out for it. i had most of it on vhs years ago from tv but have mangaed to lose it. cheers, marcel (new zealand).

[ammayoga]

2 fuckin ledgends

[AlexAndrin]

My two favourite songwriters/singers

[isk8pools]

this is good, is it a superchunk cover?

[PvtSchlock]

No. Its an import. Older import, sorry.

[GoonerAli]

Know what I mean?

[10MTNSGT]

A true innovator in rock n roll stage shows. Looks like it was a hell of a concert.

[lizardale]

greaaaaaaat!
