David Bowie
NHK Hall
Tokyo, Japan
December 12th 1978

Remastered FM.
I'm assuming it's FM, found it in an old carboard box.
Partial set from the final show of the 'Stage' era Isolar II tour.
Decent sound quality.

David Bowie
Universal Amphitheatre
Los Angeles, CA
September 5th 1974

I love Diamond Dogs.
Bowie's most proggy album.
So this was a great tour for me.
I suspect there is more than one source on the original files
but I tried to make it all flow nicely during the remastering.
You get a gold star if you listen to 'intro' more than once.
Fleas the size of rats would suck on cats the size of NYC.

David Bowie
Convention Center Arena
Dallas, Texas
April 10th 1978 (DVD)

More TV footage of the 78 band.
A bit dark but reasonable quality.
I've added a bonus documentary which focuses on Bowie's finances.
That sounds a bit tasteless but it's surprisingly good at times.
Well I enjoyed it anyway.

Titus

David Bowie
Musikladen Extra
recorded: May 1978
broadcast: August 4th 1978
plus
Russell Harty interview
broadcast: November 28th 1975

I have a four disc DVD box-set I made years ago
of various Bowie films, documentaries, interviews and live performances.
David died seven years ago today
so I thought I'd share something from that compilation.
The Musikladen set is excellent.
Fantastic band including Adrian Belew on lead guitar,
Utopia's Roger Powell on synth and Hawkwind's very own Simon House on violin:














































'Moon of Alabama' is ace, sounds almost Zappaesque.
You also get Russell Harty's, slightly awkward, 1975 interview
which was conducted live via satellite.
High tech stuff back in the day!

Titus

This is footage of Bowie's headline set.















































As usual David assembled an excellent band:

Reeves Gabrels - guitar





























































Video/audio quality is very good and it's a great show.

Discovering David Bowie
Sky Arts 1
April 14th 2013

Not as good as the interview one I posted recently.
This is more standard fare with assorted clips
and journos spouting their dubious insights.
On a plus side, being 2013, it allows for a look at his later work.
It may be of interest if you like Bowie.

David Bowie
An Earthling at 50
Sky Arts 1
1997

An interview with Bowie around the time he turned fifty.
Quite good if you are into David Jones.
It's in MKV format.
