David Sanborn on sax! Woo hoo!

[@dennytaylor1005]

Really? I did not know that. Cool. That sax was jammin in the background - its rare that you almost miss it - it takes someone like Bowie to overshadow Sanborn.

[@stevecontini5386]

He kills that sax !

[@carrerlluna66]

That is a classic Sanborn solo with his instantly recognizable growl and tasty phrases. Sadly he passed away on May 12th. He will be missed. RIP

[@jeffmiller4832]

He performed this song on Soul Train. He was also the first white artist to perform on the show.

[@324cmac]

He does have soul.

[@melvinwomack3717]

Yep

[@mangasky7]

Not accurate. He performed Fame and Golden Years on Soul Train; he performed Young Americans on the Dick Cavett Show.

[@jesusalvarez2911]

No. .....He Did Fame and Golden Years. No this song. And yes, He was the first White to play in Soul Train. That was Historic, at that moment

[@alfredlandesman5165]

Davie Bowie played on Soul Train, Nov 4, 1975, but Elton John, who is also WHITE, did Philadelphia Freedom on May 17, 1975. Eltons appearance was epic everybody should go back on KZbin and watch it.

[@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra]

This is about the ignorance of youth (and the inability to comprehend how ignorant you are, at such a moment). The factor of being "American" is a side-bar and chosen, more, to connect to: American music (Soul and R&B), which is something Bowie is not "commenting on," but, rather: paying tribute to and showing admiration for. ...But the commentary is about: being young and not being aware (and how that, definitely, can & will "bite-you-in-the-ass"); not some "slam" on a particular culture, per se. The couple could have, as easily, been British or German or Brazilian (etc.) and had the same experiences.

[@terrycunningham8118]

@@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra Maybe, but he specifically mentions "your President Nixon" and "the dues" we have to pay. It was a little preachy, along the same vein as The Clash singing, "never mind the stars and stripes, let's hear the Watergate tapes". Of course, a lot of that went away when Thatcher came along.

I don't know whether you were referring to this song, specifically, but: it is NOT a fact that Luther arranged or did anything "for/with all" of the backing vocals on this album. It, just, isn't. David, himself, is responsible for a fair number of the backing vocal arrangements and ideas. On Vandross' song ["Fascination"], for instance, Bowie reorganized & reconfigured the interplay of the backing vocals (from Vandross' "Funky Music..." original) -as well as rewriting the lyrics, etc.-. ...so, give credit where specific credit is due! 👍👍

[@carrerlluna66]

@@carrerlluna66 That's what I was asking: whether you were referring to THIS, particular, song (individually), or to the entire album (which, the way you wrote, you could be doing/be assumed to be - and which, then, would NOT BE correct!)! Why "quote wiki"?? Why not learn things for yourself and state things from your own knowledge and memory (the way people are supposed to!!)!!! 🙄🙄🤦🤷. ...but thank you for specifying/'correcting.' That is, indeed, what I was asking. Vandross did not do the background vocal arrangements for the entire Young Americans album. He did do so for this title track ("Young Americans"). It is YOUR JOB, as the writer and attempted DISSEMINATOR of such information, to make it IMMEDIATELY APPARENT in your writing. Not attempt to "blame your source" when, in fact, it is YOUR writing, not the source material, which is to blame, to begin with. Thank you. 👍

[@jimmymcintyre7944]

That's the next album Bowie put out after Young Americans. The Station To Station tour was the first time I saw Bowie in concert. That was in 1976.

[@fuchsiaswing8545]

Station to Station is where it all came together in the post-Ronson era. The “Plastic Soul” of Young Americans hangs over, but he's entering more experimental territory that gives hints of the ensuing, less-commerical Berlin Trilogy. It's arguably his masterwork.

[@gerardodoherty9178]

"...we lived for just these twenty years, do we have to die for the fifty more." I'm not sure if I got the lyrics right or even exactly when he meant but that line always intrigued me, especially now that I'm in my sixties. My twenties were so exciting, where anything and everything was possible. Now, it's like I'm trying recapture that feeling over the next fifty years, and of course it's not possible or feasible.

[@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra]

Young Americans (the album and the song, specifically) are what Bowie referred to as: "plastic soul"- supposedly meaning "an artificial version of actual soul" and, definitely, based-on & influenced by (then-still-current) "Philly Soul" (the Gamble & Huff empire). This was Bowie playing around with things which fascinated him at the time. More closely-aligned with the Philly Saul sound but (of course, as that, itself, is a derivative of) also, less so/more mildly: Stax Records and Memphis Soul and Motown, Bowie, even, went to Philly to record this album. Ava Cherry, Luther Vandross (yes: THAT Luther Vandross! -before anyone knew him! He was barely singing back-up for other artists, in NY.C. at the point that Bowie grabbed him) and Robin Clark are the backing vocalists and are the vocalists who sing on a preponderance of the album. Bowie even does a Vandross song -see: "Fascination" (based on the Vandross-written: "Funky Music (Is A Part Of Me)")-Bowie (of course) rewrote the existing lyrics and changed on or two elements of the structure (maybe a chord voicing, here and there, also) and reconfigured the arrangement and "interspersal" of the backing vocals. ...This was, all, about to move onto Bowie's "Thin, White Duke" persona ("cocaine vampire" for lack of a better description), which would see him, literally, lose his mind, as well. ...but this was JUST prior to all of that and the "reboot" he got/'found,' working with: Iggy Pop [on Ig's first 2 solo albums-which Bowie helped produce and was in the touring bands for!], Tony Visconti (his long-time producer, musician and friend) and Brian Eno "the Berlin albums" (only one of which was, actually, recorded IN Berlin [West Berlin at the time-This was during the wall/the time of russian occupation] ...so: a unique and important point in Bowie's career and, definitely, one of the more evocative ones (I.M.O.!) (As if: most of the periods in Bowie's career weren't "evocative" or "striking" in their own right! 😛😝🙄🤦) . I am pretty sure that you guys would be big fans of the entire Young Americans album, as well as Station To Station (which is equally "funky," but "dry," "cold," "futuro-funky" ...much moreso than anything Bowie's ever done. ...and Young Americans -while it deals with darker feelings/"issues"( 🤷🤔-questionable) and disillusionment (released just about a week after Nixon resigned from office!)-, in sound and "texture" it is "warm" and "friendly" ..."non-threatening...🤔," "embracing" (almost) ...and more evocative of earlier soul music (although, as always: in a David Bowie style.). ...Those are Bowie's, "direct": "R&B"/"Soul" albums (if you want to look at them that way.)👍.

[@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra]

...and, yeah: The Beatles quote was, kinda, like "the capper," here. 💜🤘🤘 ...but also: Bowie covers The Beatles on this album and got John Lennon to come down from N.Y.C. and work on "Fame" with him, later, so 🤷🤷🤷 (maybe, just: "par for the course" 🤷🤪😛 😉) ...

[@chaosandcreation4118]

This is straight out of Philly and the Philly sound, right after Diamond Dogs. Think of the O'Jays. All the backup singers are from that crowd. Check out his Soul Train appearance.

[@adk100m]

You fellas continue to amaze. Your energy for "this" zone of music is wonderful to experience. Always put this the era of "Fame" (nice collab with Lennon)--call call La. Che: you always to seem to appreciate Dave's "futuristic" quality. Check out the entire "Station To Station" album--it has hits on it all cued up for 2035 to 2050. See TVC 15, Station To Station, (I think you guys did "Stay" right?). AND, my continued recommendation of "Wild Is The WInd"--Dave goes Frank Sinatra on us. Dave as Crooner. Check it out!

[@ericv181]

Later in the 90’s Bowie releases “I’m afraid of Americans” with music by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails

[@rockandrollpaddy]

White Boy 'Plastic Soul' as Bowie called it. This album, released in 1975, followed the glam rock & roll of the Ziggy years and caused shock waves. No-one had crossed over from rock & roll to R&B. Check out the live performance from the Dick Cavett show with Luther VR on backing vocals. Though Bowie's voice is shot from cocaine, it is a wonderful piece of music history. There are also some clips on YT of Bowie and the band in the recording studio making the album which are great watch. The next album, Station to Station, from 1976, where he crosses funk, rock & roll, and electronica is even better!

[@grandwazoodebris1015]

Fame and Young Americans were 2 of my fav Bowie songs, both from this album. Very fine.

One of my favorite artists is a guy named Jeffrey Gaines. First time I saw him live he closed his show with “Five Years”. He took over the drums for that song. A couple of years later, on his second album, he added an acoustic track called “Win”. I was unfamiliar with the song and I had never heard him perform it live. The credits said it was a Bowie song. Gaines was very instrumental in my appreciation of David Bowie. Even though his music is not as obviously linked to Bowie as MGMT, for example, if you pay attention you’ll pick up the vibe.
