RIGHTEOUS! My main man.
He does look good, and seems to be having even more fun on âFameâ later in the same show. I know that Bowieâs flirting with funk and soul was perhaps more stylistic pose than deep passion, but those are still good pop songs if not funk classics. And he seems to have picked great collaborators, and respected them. Iâve just found his 1976 quote that Young Americans was âthe definitive plastic soul record. Itâs the squashed remains of ethnic music as it survives in the age of Muzak, written and sung by a white limeyâ. Of course âethnic musicâ hadnât been squashed, but I get what he means. I doubt that they invited him back on Soul Train after the his trip to Victoria Station though.

I am in Cambodia FFS.
I get the same in the country of his birth. I just Youtubed the clip.
So thatâs where Spike Spiegel got his suit.
i love old bowie. he is always so stylinâ.
i was thinking about how Twitch.tv had that recent success showing old Bob Ross painting show episodes, and it occurred to me that maybe they should do old Soul Trail episodes. iâd watch marathons of those in a heartbeat.
Itâs weird how on the Golden Years site they call Don Cornelius âAnchorâ on the interview transcript. I watched that show every Saturday morning and danced along, and thought about going down there to try to get in, but knew there was no chance theyâd let a white boy in. Probably would have gotten a beatdown for my trouble.
What i love about geo-blocking is that it protects us all. Everyone wins.

He name is Bowie, not Boo-ee.
Weâve got this, but nobody has the clip of the Romantics singing Talking In Your Sleep on Soul Train? That has to be out there somewhere. Youâve never seen Don Cornelius so incredulous about a musical guest on that showâŚ
