An entertaining little interview video that I couldn't find on YouTube.
Bowie's thoughts on first meeting Iggy Pop & Lou Reed,the Diamond Dogs tour,the Sound+Vision tour,the Ryko releases,managers,copyrights and fame.
Old stuff for U.K. Bowie fans but maybe interesting to younger Bowie fans and non U.K.Bowie fans?
Roughly edited without PC video software... (i.e. just moi inserting an old Vhs tape into a player and hitting the "record/pause" button on the Dvd recorder remote control.
Like.. you really don't want to see excerpts from the China Girl video three times in five minutes. Lol!)
Maybe a tad long at 19.23 but If you're on a forum at this time of night then it's obvious that you have time to kill.

Recorded on Saturday...
Jack................................................................................................. The song was covered by the Scottish singer Lulu in 1974, who, according to biographer David Buckley, performed it in "a sleazy, almost Berlin cabaret style". Lulu would recall Bowie inviting her to a concert he gave after which he met her in his hotel room saying: "I want to make a ‘Mother F*cker ‘of a record with you because you're a great singer."
Lulu - "I didn't think it would happen but Bowie followed up two days later. He was übercool at the time and I just wanted to be led by him. I loved everything he did. I didn't think 'The Man Who Sold the World' was the greatest song for my voice, but it was such a strong song in itself. I had no idea what it was about. In the studio Bowie kept telling me to smoke more cigarettes, to give my voice a certain quality. Bowie produced the Lulu recording of "The Man Who Sold the World" with Mick Ronson during the ‘Pin Ups’sessions and also contributed guitar , saxophone and backing vocals. The remainder of the band included Ronson on guitar, Trevor Bolder on bass , Mike Garson on piano, and Aynsley Dunbar on drums. Lulu's "The Man Who Sold the World" was released as a single on January 11 1974 having been introduced by Lulu on the TOTP broadcast of January 10 1974: the track only made its Top 50 debut (at #27) on the chart dated January 16 1974 following a reprise performance by Lulu on the January 24 1974 TOTP broadcast with a third TOTP performance by Lulu on the February 7 1974 broadcast facilitating a boost from #13 to #5 on the chart dated February 9 1974. In her TOTP performances in support of "The Man Who Sold the World" Lulu has been characterised as "dressed and sounding exactly like a diminutive Bowie".On the UK Top 50 dated February 16 1974 Lulu's "The Man Who Sold the World" rose to #3 which proved to be the peak position for the track which subsequently made an accelerated chart descent with its overall Top 50 tenure being a comparatively brief nine weeks. Internationally "The Man Who Sold the World" afforded Lulu a major hit hit in Ireland (#8), the Netherlands (#10) and Germany (#13): the track was also a minor chart item in Australia at #81.

Not being a "TV person",I'd never seen this before and just came across it by accident whilst looking for something else.
Wasn't too sure where to post it at first (Was gonna post it in the YouTube section) but as it is by someone close to Bowie and there is some interesting stuff about Bowie in it,thought it belonged here.
I think it's rather funny.
Know probably most UK fans have seen it but maybe fans from other countries haven't?
Jack
P.S. And If you're a fan of Red Dwarf like moi then that's a bonus.
