Otta Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 In all seriousness, aged 7 in 1985 that was pretty much the first time these two had appeared on my radar.And much as I like lots of Stones, and some Bowie numbers, I basically haven't been able to like either of them ever, because the 7 year old me found this video disturbing.

Jeremy Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I think I already knew about Bowie from the Now Thats What I Call Music LPs! But I was a bit too young to appreciate how embarrassing that song really is.

El Pibe Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 it's genuinely difficult to watch.I guess Ashes to Ashes was my first exposure to him and loved it, that (and tin machine) made my attitudes somewhat ambivalent Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50433-best-musical-collaborations/page/2/#findComment-791739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pibe Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 posted this up on fb recentlyutterly improbable collaboration of Tom Jones, Leslie Rankin (of silverfish 'fame') and Mark Walk from Skinny Puppy!!

StraferJack Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 always worth a read in it's own right, but the entry on DITS is very goodhttps://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CC0QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fbowiesongs.wordpress.com%2F2012%2F01%2F17%2Fdancing-in-the-street%2F&ei=pdJEVKruHtLKaIC1gcAN&usg=AFQjCNGS37xkQWfJSrvGz6PvqOXQ6Gx0xA&bvm=bv.77648437,d.d2s Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50433-best-musical-collaborations/page/2/#findComment-791743 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the first album is actually rather good... maybe even a "must listen" for aspiring rock guitarists..

StraferJack Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Tin Machine has become a lazy shorthand for "disastrous rock star moves" and whilst I wouldn't try and convince anyone of them being great, there is plenty to like on there if you are so mindedPlus it banished his yuppy 80s persona to the dustbin and for that alone, I'm grateful Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50433-best-musical-collaborations/page/2/#findComment-791750 Share on other sites More sharing options...
red devil Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I thought it was pretty obvious at the time that the whole DITS thing was a hastily put together pi$$ take, and just as hastily forgiven as it was for charidee. Perhaps a cue for Ot's next musically inspired thread...are there any critically acclaimed charidee records out there?...

El Pibe Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I can't say as i know their whole output, I just remeber them coming on, whatever it was, the tube? and expecting something I'm not sure what, but not that 'oh my, boring aor'I am now spotifying them to see if i have done them a disservice.

Jeremy Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 As SJ says... it's not a classic, but it is not poor by any means. There is some interesting (but not wanky) guitar stuff on there.

El Pibe Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 well it's better than i recall, though it appeals to me more tha it would the old me.But neither is it necessarily something i'd put on again ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/50433-best-musical-collaborations/page/2/#findComment-791766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jah Lush Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I was lucky enough to go to one of the five nights Jeff Beck played at Ronnie Scott's. This is just one of highlights of one of those nights.

adonirum Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Status Quo and the Beach Boys!!!!!!
