If you're a #Bowie fan and/or a fan of early #1970s#music & #fashion, you have GOT to watch this 1973 episode of Midnight Special (hosted by Wolfman Jack!) featuring Bowie, Marianne Faithful, The Troggs, Carmen (great band unknown to me) and others.
Phenomenal. I've never heard of this gig, never seen screenshots of it. The outfits are incredible, as is the music.
@ophiocephalic you're very welcome! One of the singers in Carmen really reminded me of Bowie, in both wardrobe and in vocal range. I thought they were a great choice to have as part of the show. One of the guys (David Clark Allen) is apparently still somewhat active.

the 1980 Floor Show presented in 1973…
Bowie was always ahead of his time, or outside of time, or beyond time, and will be remembered as an all time great…imho…
