David Bowie: Uncle Floyd (Slip Away) Completa - Toy Album

[@garyhaber333]

Here i am, 30 yrs later, reminiscing about growing up on LI.... watching Uncle Floyd on channel 12..... Great times. Great memories.

[@kimberlyjohnson1371]

No one could've done it better.. amazing how simply changing a few words/lyrics can give a song more universal appeal..all the while leaving the melody the way it was meant to sound. So I give The resting soul/spur of The late great David Bowie my applause..

Floyd Where Prohibited. Watched Uncle Floyd in the 80's when I was in Jersey home from college for the summer. Saw him play live at a piano bar at some dive in Jersey. He is a very nice guy and gave all of us many laughs.

[@stuartwray6175]

Floyd 'where' (was?) prohibited. He was prohibited?

[@OverlandOne]

@@stuartwray6175 No that was just a funny saying they made up. It was mocking the old "void where prohibited" phrase at the end of every TV offer. I think a viewer sent it in and it was hanging with the pictures on the wall sent by other viewers.

Listening to Uncle Floyd on WFDU and I discovered this gem. Didn't know it existed but so happy that David Bowie and John Lennon were also big fans of the Uncle Floyd Show when he was U68.. Uncle Floyd's Garage Sale Music is on every Sunday from 9am - 12 noon on WFDU 89.1 FM.

[@TerrapinCreations666]

I've heard the story directly from the cast how they met David Bowie at a bar in the city and that was when he said that he and John Lennon would watch the Uncle Floyd show together and that they were both big fans of the show.

[@santaclaushawkeyenj3878]

True! David was a big fan of Uncle Floyd Show and the players.

[@patrickbone6171]

Brilliant version of a great song by a fantastic and sorely missed artist.

[@williambrasky9518]

Grew up in Jersey w. Uncle Floyd, 7 years old. Look forward to it daily. Should have his own movie

[@rosemarymills1671]

Couldn't help but tear up and sigh hearing this song and seeing so many more pix I hadn't seen. Still hard to believe he's gone. Am so glad you shared this.

[@klaudianotsch3472]

David ist immer wieder grandios. Das ist meine Lieblingsnummer!!❤❤❤

[@fafalina56]

O, the memories. Came here feeling low and down, knowing that a dose of Uncle Floyd and David Bowie would make me feel better. I remember watching it nightly on UHF 68, and even though we were a bunch of 20-something year olds at the time, formed a fan club, submitted pictures, and our birthdays hoping to have them aknowledged. Never so proud as when one of our fan club pictures was featured for the day, and the day my birthday was announced. Seeing John Bongiovanni perform before he called himself Bon Jovi, and Blotto, and Doug & the Slugs, and so many more. First thing I did with my first car was slap a "I don't avoid - I watch Uncle Floyd " bumper sticker on it. And, I still have my 45 of "I'm my own Grampa". Snap it pal to the end!

[@babu357]

OMG. The bumpersticker! Forgot about that. lol I was about 14. I got one of my drawing up on the show too. So proud. lol

[@ausomeaspie]

That's so weird, I literally heard the "I'm my own Grandpa" song yesterday!

[@pattycassiani1352]

Bellissima canzone...emozionante...grande Bowie

[@tvacca9066]

So gorgeous and deeply moving.

[@sue7621]

[@loretano]

great memories I loved Uncle Floyd. Wish they had more recording available!

[@EliasLeytonMusica]

Lloro en este momento... How I wonder where you are... gracias por tanto Bowie

[@larsgabriel5698]

My mother recently passed away, because of cancer. Never in my life, have I felt such agonising pain and sorrow. However I tried to channel that pain and made a cover, of one of my favorite songs, namely Bowie’s masterpiece Slip Away. Maybe you would like to hear it - @

[@larrygregoire842]

Used to watch Uncle Floyd A lot .met him in Asbury park in 2007 at the Baronet Theater before it closed . That same year and was torn down in 2010

[@kennethscott5210]

Okay, someone in the 🌎 knows, exactly how deep I i feel about those 2 songs , and how much they mean to me both spiritually and mystically. David 👑 ⭐ 😇❤.

[@cultundergroundmoviesmusic845]

Fucking amazing beyond words

[@santaclaushawkeyenj3878]

RIP David

[@mariebrechet1438]

Merci c'est merveilleux ❤ 😢💔💔💔💔

[@melissakearns199]

Thank you for the video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@reminisco1776]

Man, I got Heathen when it came out, and somehow never put this together. Heathen is legit one of his best albums too. One more reason to love David Bowie, he's a fan of Uncle Floyd too.

[@samgregg4833]

thank you for posting

[@polecanal]

Amazing...

[@stuartwray6175]

What's Rock doing? Oh, he's living with his mother What about James? He's gone straight

[@Ancientreapers]

Needed more Oogie and Floyd. In fact, only Oogie and Floyd. Since it was a song about them. Bowie used to watch them whenever he was in NY and NJ on tour back in the day. Good video otherwise and thanks for uploading it.

[@stuartwray6175]

They were the catalyst. It's not specifically about them but the passage of time, the passing of friends, dashed hopes/failed ambitions for some, fulfillment for others. Bowie was also remembering Lennon, who loved (and introduced Bowie to) the show. They would often watch it together.

[@babu357]

Elmo stole Oogie's voice! 😮

[@bowietrespass]

hermosa

[@klaudianotsch3472]

[@klaudianotsch3472]

Einfach David..Einfach GENIAL

[@Pstephen]

I've always preferred this version, if only for the drums at about 4.53.

[@simonmoglie4518]

Where on Earth did you get this version from?....It's a brilliant rendition of a great, great Bowie song. Thanks and well done. RIP David Bowie, you were fun boy!

[@dustythe2nd188]
