ES TUT WEH ZUWISSEN DAS ES NIE WIEDER NEUE AUFTRITTE VON DAVID BOWIE GEBEN WIRD.DAS STIMMT MICH SEHR TRAURIG. ER WAR EIN MUSIKALISCHES GENIE.😥😪🥀🌷♥️♥️♥️🎀🎀🎸🎼🎶⭐⭐⭐

[@regretto]

I've watched tons of live recordings and bootlegs of his concerts and I think that this is probably the one I'd like to attend to if there was a time machine. even though it's from his experimental phase, new arrangements and all, just the mood of the man himself, the engagement ot the crowd, the relative intimacy of the venue and the overall joy - that's what make it so great for me.

[@pietajanssenvanelst2167]

[@necholecordova5513]

i love finding a video that I haven't seen yet so I could fall in love with it

[@musibaba70]

Un Bowie mas cercano, sin los abalorios decorativos q lo enmascaran, es tan de agradecer! .. y a tí también amigo por ponerlo, mil gracias y un abrazo!! 💗👍

[@DJOfRadioValinor]

when he sings that tease bit at the start yoy see his younger soul self.

[@SuperLisalis]

Beautiful... great Y.Tube vids you have.

[@actron]

The pianist had a really excellent idea there, kinda like he was playing along with the lights at about 5:29 or so. Is this the tour where Mike Garson joined him again? Man, and Reeves Gabrels, nice work there, dialed in that Mick Ronson tone and then blended it nicely into some Adrian Belew territory. Bowie's so cool, great sense of humor too

[@LauraVanadzina]

actron Mike Garson joined Bowie on tour in 1996 - he was on the 'Outside' album (came out in 1995) itself too. This was the 'Earthling' (came out in 1997) tour, but Garson was with Bowie on it too.

[@SuperLisalis]

WOWZER Brilliant. Thanku

[@RICKYYYYYYYYYYY1]

YEAHHH

[@jopipes9963]

Just discovered "Good Morning Little School Girl" is a riff from Fred McDowell. Yeah1

[@AnnoyingKiwiDude]

love

[@edwinafawke4243]

Agree with ziggywatters except my best Bowie gig was Milton Keynes bowl, many years ago! This does seem intimate. I'm just waiting for the man to tour again............Please!

[@peterlinie3]

DB always cracking entertainment live.

[@thdraws]

@kurtizzyflush : perhaps riff is the wrong term, but listen to Led Zeppelin's `How Many More Times', at what the bass is playing from 3:31 to 3:35 on the studio version. Bowie quotes it directly at the start of Jean Genie.

[@bleckgilbert7875]

enorme bowiesque

[@AnnoyingKiwiDude]

god

[@kurtizzyflush]

@thdraws Bass riff?

[@thdraws]

"that was apropos of nothing"... If you listen to the "uh-uh-uh-oh" chorus of the Yardbirds' version of Good Morning Little Schoolgirl, it sounds like Bowie owes a debt to this R & B song, as it seems to have inspired the chorus in his TVC15. While the studio version of Jean Genie opens with a bass riff lifted off Jimmy Page's other band, Led Zeppelin (in How Many More Times). It's fascinating how ideas get used & re-used through music, borrowed & retooled.

[@reverendmississippi]

Worst version of it i have heard guotar crap

[@TimmyJamesDafunnyMan]

At least he could spell
