Does anyone know what song this is?

[DiamondDogsChannel]

@Billcruxley The song is called 'Footstompin' and was originally performed in 1961 by The Flares.

Sounds a little like FAME... "plastic soul"

[123getfree]

the greatest of all time!

awesome voice.so gritty

[Themanwhocameback2]

Yes, Bowie borrowed a lot from this song with "Fame". The blonde haired woman dancing is Ava Cherry, Bowie's girlfriend at the time. It's funny because at the time, many thought that David and the brunette male back up singer,Jjeffrey Maccormack, were an item.
