Bowie in Bertolt Brecht's Baal...from a TV play or something. I have it...not among his greatest work, but interesting. Now if it was Bowie narrating Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf...that would be another matter!

Yes that was it! I see Kieth A has provided a clip. Will check out. :-) x

I survived (endured?) about a minute of that! Nice little looking artefact though. Still, I got a great coat today for a wee bit more, so happy enough. Actually picked up a Bowie related thing from said charity shop other day. A tape (yes, we've still got a great component here) of 'Merry Xmas' soundtrack. Mainly as I quite like Sakamoto, though it's hardly 'his' best either. Also picked up a tape of Metal Machine Music. Just because. Tape a bit slack though, needing the old rewind/ff thing a few times. Not that it'll get played or nowt. :-) x

Mine would be a fairly even mixture of the obvious and the obscure: The Man Who Sold the World Heroes All the Madmen Ashes to Ashes Space Oddity An Occasional Dream Art Decade Oh You Pretty Things Sell Me A Coat Rebel Rebel Can't Help Thinking About Me Life on Mars Let Me Sleep Beside You Soul Love Quicksand

Bless the old dears that run these places, but they do get it a bit wrong at times. They're charging a fortune for things lile T'Pau or Five Star, on vinyl, coz (and I did hear this said once) 'those young ones are getting into records again'. We got those two tapes for 75p, so now they've actually had a sale I'm expecting the prices to rocket. Better get in there fast. :-) x

Eminintly sampleable too (although I only know of one instance in which it has been sampled, that being the Third Eye Foundation's "What to Do But Cry".)

I'm trying to find when the particular edition is from. Looks a bit 80s going by the paper. I'll leave the anoraky 'issue checkup' stuff to someone else. ;-) x
