David Bowie - Pre Earthling Tour [Acoustic]
 |
[Live [04/08/97] Radio 99X Atlanta, Georgia]
[From The CD "Seven Months In America"]
On April 8th, 1997, David Bowie stopped by the studios of radio station "99X" in Atlanta, Georgia, with Reeves Gabrels in tow, to perform an on-air acoustic set in preparation for the Earthling world tour. In between reminiscing about "some time spent in the 'can' with Johnny Cash" and "strange riffs" from Jimmy Page, the two fill the room with more music than seems possible with just two guitars, while entertaining an energetic and receptive studio audience. But David Bowie is a pretty large presence on his own. Another artist who's lived a charmed and beautiful life. More Bowie to follow in the next few weeks. Enjoy
[BTW: I use Explorer to post to & review blogalive but recently have been using Firefox more frequently and have only just noticed that with Firefox, Safari, and even Netscape there is a large gap (a few blank lines) between the date / title headers and the photo / song listings for each post. I've fixed this as of todays post. A small error. I hope this looks better. Explorer treated these line breaks a little differently, so I hadn't noticed until surfing the site with Firefox on a friends Powerbook. Yet another reason I should finally trash Explorer...]
