In this episode of Explaining History, we dive into the fascinating world of David Bowie's 1960s—a decade of shifting cultural currents, personal reinvention, and the search for identity that would shape one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century.Drawing on Neil Stephenson's insightful book David Bowie, we explore how the social upheavals of the 60s—from Swinging London and Mod culture to the countercultural movements and sexual liberation—created a crucible in which Bowie experimented with music, fashion, and persona.We'll discuss:Bowie's early forays into pop, soul, and psychedelia—and why they initially struggled to find commercial success.How the cultural chaos of the 60s fed his hunger for reinvention and laid the groundwork for Ziggy Stardust.The tensions between working-class roots and art-school aspirations that defined his early career.How Bowie's fascination with identity, performance, and ambiguity reflected broader changes in British society during the era.*****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Hosted on Acast.

Prior to the last song of the performance, Bowie told the crowd, “Not only is it the last show of the tour, but it's the last show that we'll ever do.” Even some of the band members were taken by surprise at the ...
David Bowie retired his alter-ego Ziggy Stardust live on stage at London's Hammersmith Odeon on 3rd July, 1973. To the surprise of most of his band, the Spiders From Mars, he announced to a devastated crowd that the gig was “the last show we'll ever do.” Bowie's management company had plans to take Ziggy on an international tour, but being Ziggy Stardust had taken a mental and physical toll on the singer. “I really did want it all to come to an end,” he wrote in Moonage Daydream. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how a ‘fake' Lou Reed influenced Bowie to create the character of Ziggy; discover how, for a while, his fans were called ‘the Uglies' and his genre ‘freakrock'; and reveal how this iconic rockstar felt ‘hopelessly lost' in his own fantasy… Further Reading: • ‘Looking back on David Bowie's most legendary gig: The death of Ziggy Stardust' (London Evening Standard, 2019): https://www.standard.co.uk/culture/music/david-bowie-death-ziggy-stardust-hammersmith-odeon-a4034746.html • ‘How David Bowie killed off Ziggy Stardust' (Far Out Magazine, 2021): https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/how-david-bowie-killed-ziggy-stardust/ • ‘David Bowie – Ziggy Stardust' (Live, 1973): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq8gG3pzMrU&list=PLNJirx02I6P72KTv5oJPSF-kkagLgfJWr&index=3 Love the show?

In the second episode of Soundscapes N.Y.C., host Ryan Purcell talks with Tony Zanetta. In the late 1960s, Zanetta worked in Off-Off-Broadway theater and ultimately landed a role playing the Andy Warhol character in Pork, an absurdist play based on Warhol's phone recordings. Zanetta followed the cast to London where he befriended David Bowie who subsequently appointed him president of his management company, Main Man, and Bowie's direct point of contact in America for the Ziggy Stardust tour (1972). With his involvement with Bowie, Zanetta was responsible for developing acts under the Main Man umbrella. This included a proto-punk band called Queen Elizabeth fronted by Jayne (formerly Wayne) County. With Bowie's financial backing, Zanetta produced a gender-bending spectacle of drag, sex, and rock 'n' roll: Wayne County at the Trucks! (1974).

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 16ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 tháinig sé amach gur chaith daoine sa tír níos mó ná 520 milliún punt ar alcól agus tobac I rith 1976 agus d'ardaigh sé nach mór 87 milliún punt ón bhliain roimhe. I 2000 ní raibh an rialtas ag sheachaint beart níos mó chun na tithe a dhéanamh níos inacmhainne mura n-oibríonn an phacáiste nua. I 1998 d'éiligh ar Denis Landy ó Charraig na Siúire cosc a chur ar guma conganta a dhíol sa chontae. Tháinig an nuacht seo tar éis a d'fhostaigh Comhairle Contae Tiobraid Árann duine chun an guma conganta a glanadh suas ón tsráid ina bhaile. I 2001 tháinig an nuacht amach go mbeadh John Leahy – imreoir iománaíocht ag teacht ar ais chun imir leis an chontae arís. Ghortaigh sé a ballnasc croiseach ach dúirt sé go raibh sé ag súil le teacht ar ais. Sin John Travolta agus Olivia Newton John le You're The One That I Want – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1978 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1972 tháinig David Bowie amach lena 5ú halbam The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars – an coincheap den albam ná chun scéal a rá d'eachtrán darbh ainm Ziggy Stardust. Chuaigh an t-albam chuig uimhir a 5 sa Bhreatain agus uimhir 75 I Meiriceá agus tháinig sé amach go raibh sé an t-albam ab fhearr riamh. I 2002 46 bhliain tar éis a chéad amhrán, chuaigh Elvis Presley chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Little Less Conversation. Tar éis é sin bhí 18 uimhir a haon aige. Agus chomh maith bhí sé an t-amhránaí a raibh sna cairteacha den chuid is mó I rith 44 bhliain. A chéad uimhir a haon a bhí aige ná All Shook Up I 1957. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Jurgen Klopp sa Ghearmáin I 1967 agus rugadh amhránaí John Newman sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1990 agus seo chud de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 16th of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: irish people spent a record of £520m on alchol and tobacco during 1976 which waas an increase of almost £87m. 2000: the government were not shrinking from further action to make houses more affordable if the sweeping package unveiled does not work. 1998 - CARRICK-ON-SUIR councilor, Denis Landy, demanded a global ban on the sale of chewing gum in South Tipperary. The Labour councilor issued the demand after South Tipperary County Council was forced to hire a "gum buster" to remove chewing gum from a cobbled street in his town. 2001 - DOWN but by no means out. a defiant John Leahy vowed that he will make a supreme effort to make a comeback for Tipperary next year. Although devastated by his cruciate ligament injury his hopes are still high. That was John Travolta and Olivia Newton John with You're The One That I Want – the biggest song on this day in 1978 Onto music news on this day In 1972 David Bowie released his fifth studio album The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars a concept album telling the story of a fictional bisexual alien rock star named Ziggy Stardust. The album which reached No.5 in the UK and No. 75 in the US has been consistently considered one of the greatest albums of all time. 2002 46 years after his first hit, Elvis Presley started a four week run at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'A Little Less Conversation', (Elvis vs. JXL), giving Elvis a total of 18 UK No.1 singles, the most by any artist in chart history. This also set a new record for the longest span of No.1 hits with 44 years, 11 months and 9 days. His first UK No.1 single was 'All Shook Up' in 1957. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – soccer coach Jurgen Klopp was born in Germany in 1967 and singer John Newman was born in the UK on this day in 1990 and this is one of his songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.
Madeline, Julian, and Emilio welcome back past guest and Julian's longtime friend Michaela Brady to continue discussing films with Musicians-Turned-Actors, and this time it's a "Mise-Unseen" on Nicolas Roeg's 1976 film "The Man Who Fell to Earth," starring David Bowie in his first acting role. Centered on the titular alien's efforts to harness earthly resources and bring water back to his drought-laden home planet, the film blends its literary world-building with a tone barely seen in films after the 1970s, by way of first-time actor Bowie's naturalism, Roeg's unconventional direction, and an eclectic supporting cast. A first-time watch for all, the group compares this film to others they didn't get on an initial watch, but still found compelling, along with discussing its reflections of the 1970s zeitgeist and dropping plenty of Bowie-related anecdotes, both personal and well-known, along the way.Listeners - what are some movies you didn't quite understand on first watch, but knew you wanted to come back to?

Le 16 juin 1972, le disquaire, c'est un autre monde aujourd'hui disparu mais alors un point de passage obligé pour presque tout le monde. C'est là qu'on se procure ces chansons magiques qu'on a entendues à la radio, dans un juke-box, dans une émission de variétés à la télé ou chez des copains. Et puis il y a ceux, des passionnés, qui s'y rendent pour se renseigner sur ce qui vient de sortir, écouter un extrait et si ils accrochent, ils achètent et rentrent chez eux avec leur nouveau trésor. Car c'est ça la musique en 1972 : un bien précieux. Et si la pochette est belle, c'est encore mieux. Et justement, en parlant de pochette, sur ce 33 Tours qui vient d'arriver chez le disquaire, on voit un type pâle, les cheveux couleur feu, poser dans une ruelle sombre avec la guitare nonchalamment en bandoulière. Et puis gros plan à l'arrière dans une de ces fameuses cabines téléphoniques rouges, c'est sûrement Londres. Le gars, on dirait un acteur échappé d'un film de science-fiction. Le titre de l'album est à rallonge en plus, c'est pas une première mais il est intriguant quand même : The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Oui, tout ça. Le chanteur se nomme David Bowie. Certains le connaissent. Il a déjà sorti pas mal de disques mais bon, c'est un second couteau qui n'a pas bien choisi son camp, entre rock, folk, expérimental, cabaret, bref il est aussi flou que la photo de la pochette de ce disque. Et là, il fait le coup de l'album concept façon Sgt Pepper des Beatles. Il pousse même un peu plus loin car cela semble raconter toute une histoire, celle d'une rockstar, un messie déchu, prophète de notre décadence. Ah bon ? On est décadent ?Mais ce qu'on ignore ici c'est que David Bowie ne fait pas que raconter une histoire : il la vit de l'autre côté de la Manche, soir après soir sur scène, maquillé comme une drag-queen samouraï. Et le public britannique devient fou. En Belgique et en France, on ne va pas comprendre tout de suite. Trop bizarre, trop anglais. Mais dans les chambres d'adolescents, le disque commence à tourner, on s'en parle en classe ou à l'intercours. Car Ziggy est le premier vrai héros pop à dire : sois toi-même, même si ce “toi-même” vient d'une autre planète. Imaginez le choc pour tous ceux qui vivent à l'intérieur d'eux-mêmes, avec la peur de l'extérieur, de ce qu'on va dire. Et puis tous ceux qui, à cet âge, rêvent d'être quelqu'un d'autre, fantasment en s'endormant chaque soir dans la maison familiale remplie de silence et d'ennui.There's a starman waiting in the sky… dit la chanson qui vient de sortir en 45 Tours. Personne pour imaginer que des décennies plus tard, elle sera utilisée dans une campagne de pub pour des télécoms. Ni que David Bowie sera alors un artiste connu de tous. Et respecté. Ce qui ne va pas être le cas, ni en cette année 1972, ni les suivantes, où il y aura plus de gens pour le détester que l'apprécier. Et encore moins que cet album sera un jour considéré comme un des plus grands de l'histoire. Mais quelle histoire ? Tout cela n'est que du présent, et de l'émotion, ce 16 juin 1972. D'ailleurs, ce soir, vous l'avez vu, cet homme des étoiles, juste avant de vous endormir avec le casque sur les oreilles. Et il vous regardait.
It was a bold move, and a desperate one, when David Bowie, struggling to make a go of it as a rock musician, adopted a pseudonym and donned a wild outfit in 1972. It was the birth of Ziggy Stardust, and it worked. The look and sound of Ziggy took the rock world by storm, and Bowie's concept album based on the character, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, released on June 16, 1972, marked the beginning of Bowie's rise to super-stardom. Randy Renaud has the story behind it all on this week's episode of the Chronicles of Rock.
We flip the script this week to talk about real musicians recording real songs. Real songs that just happen to have fake bands in them. From Alexander's Ragtime Band to Ziggy Stardust, here are some of the best.

Alex Kane is a fiercely inventive guitarist, songwriter, and musical visionary whose career has spanned decades and continents. Best known for his work with bands like Life Sex & Death, Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, Antiproduct, and Enuff Z'Nuff, Kane is one of rock's true cult heroes—a player whose style fuses punk ferocity, glam flamboyance, metal precision, and a sense of showmanship that feels equal parts Ziggy Stardust and Sid Vicious.Born in Chicago, Alex Kane grew up soaking in a wild mix of musical influences—from KISS and The Sex Pistols to Cheap Trick and Queen. He picked up the guitar early and soon developed a sound that combined attitude with technical flair. His Chicago roots also gave him a gritty, no-nonsense approach that would become a signature element of his music.Life, Sex & Death (L.S.D.)Kane first gained national attention in the early '90s as the guitarist and primary songwriter for the controversial and utterly unique band Life Sex & Death. Known for blending sleaze-rock with raw punk energy and philosophical lyrics, the band featured a homeless-savant frontman named Stanley, who became a kind of underground legend.Their debut album, The Silent Majority (1992), released on Warner Bros., drew critical acclaim and cult fascination. Songs like “Tank,” “School's for Fools,” and “Jawohl Asshole” were full of snarling riffs, sharp social commentary, and theatrical swagger. Though commercial success was elusive, the band's live shows and Kane's explosive playing style left a lasting mark on the rock underground.Post-LSD & AntiproductAfter the dissolution of L.S.D., Kane relocated to the UK and co-founded Antiproduct, a glam-punk power-pop explosion that further stretched his musical boundaries. Antiproduct quickly developed a rabid UK fan base with their high-energy shows and outrageous visual style.Their album Consume and Die… The Rest Is All Fun showcased Kane's diverse influences—from Ramones-speed punk to Beatles-style melody—wrapped in crunchy guitars and rebellious hooks. The band was hailed in the British press as a breath of fresh air, and they toured relentlessly with artists like The Wildhearts and Wednesday 13.Collaborations & Side ProjectsAlex Kane is known for his prolific collaborations. He played guitar with Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, joining the punk legend for international tours and celebrating the legacy of The Ramones with thunderous authenticity. His stage presence and aggressive playing perfectly matched the spirit of the punk classics.Kane has also worked with an array of artists across genres including Pretty Boy Floyd, Richie Ramone, and Shameless, and has guested on countless albums. A fearless player, he's comfortable shredding on heavy metal tracks, laying down sleazy glam riffs, or playing melodic hooks with pop sensibility.Enuff Z'Nuff & Recent WorkIn recent years, Kane returned to his Chicago roots and joined Enuff Z'Nuff for several tours, bringing a harder-edged guitar vibe to the band's power-pop and psychedelic-tinged catalog.

De ses débuts comme acheteur pour Champs Disques, disquaire culte de l'avenue des Champs-Elysées dans les années 1970-1980, à la dernière fashion week parisienne, où il a créé les bandes-son pour les collections de pas moins de six marques, Michel Gaubert s'est imposé comme l'un des illustrateurs sonores les plus célèbres de la planète. Cet expert du son a mis en musique plus de 1 800 défilés Chanel, aux côtés de son ami Karl Lagerfeld, et collaboré avec de nombreuses grandes maisons. Il retrace cette odyssée musicale dans une autobiographie, « Remixed » (Fayard, 22,90 €), qui vient de sortir.Il nous reçoit chez lui, dans son appartement-studio du 16e arrondissement de Paris, avec vue sur la rue, où se côtoient une œuvre du plasticien Cyprien Gaillard, un fauteuil d'Harry Bertoia, « trop confortable » avec son ottoman, et une photographie de Willy Vanderperre pour Margiela. L'illustrateur sonore nous fait découvrir sa bibliothèque et son « bureau secret » : sa « caverne d'Ali Baba », où s'empilent CD et vêtements, où il écoute de la musique et commence les montages.Dans cet épisode du « Goût de M », Michel Gaubert raconte ses nuits à mixer derrière les platines du Palace, club mythique des nuits parisiennes des années 1980, son admiration pour David Bowie et son personnage de Ziggy Stardust, ou encore cette drôle de nuit de 1990, où Karl Lagerfeld l'appelle et lui demande de changer la musique pour le défilé du lendemain alors qu'il a « un somnifère dans les gencives ». Au cœur d'un monde où musique et mode sont intrinsèquement liées, les souvenirs de Michel Gaubert voient défiler les grands de ces deux univers.Cet épisode a été publié le 23 mai 2025.Depuis six saisons, la journaliste et productrice Géraldine Sarratia interroge la construction et les méandres du goût d'une personnalité. Qu'ils ou elles soient créateurs, artistes, cuisiniers ou intellectuels, tous convoquent leurs souvenirs d'enfance, tous évoquent la dimension sociale et culturelle de la construction d'un corpus de goûts, d'un ensemble de valeurs.Un podcast produit et présenté par Géraldine Sarratia (Genre idéal), préparé avec l'aide de Diane Lisarelli et de Juliette SavardRéalisation : Anaïs ReinhardtMusique : Gotan Project Hébergé par Audion.

Sie schlagen eine Brücke zwischen Tik Tok und den tragischen Helden unserer Väter: Die Indie-Rocker Car Seat Headrest haben es unter dem Einfluss von Tommy, Ziggy Stardust und The Wall gewagt, eine Rockoper fürs neue Jahrtausend zu machen. Pomp! Überlänge! Drama! Genau so verbindet man Generationen.
Dans les hauts de Belleville, à Paris, dans un immeuble des années 1960, Jeanne Cherhal habite un appartement « sans moulures ni fioritures ». Dans son « cocon en étage élevé », la chanteuse nous accueille parmi ses « objets bienveillants ». Dans la cuisine, une affiche du film « Jules et Jim », avec l'actrice Jeanne Moreau qu'elle adule, et une autre de David Bowie, Ziggy Stardust étant un de ses albums de chevet. Dans une autre pièce, elle s'amuse d'une tasse blanche qu'elle a volée dans un hôtel de Bretagne et qui lui rappelle un bon concert qu'elle avait fait la veille. Au milieu de valises éparpillées en vue d'un prochain voyage, Jeanne Cherhal raconte la formation de son goût.Elle a grandi près de Nantes avec ses deux sœurs, son père plombier, « attentif à ne pas gaspiller l'eau », et une mère institutrice, « passionnée de théâtre, de cinéma et de littérature ». Dans l'enfance, Jeanne Cherhal pratiquait la danse classique, mais c'est finalement la musique qui l'a emporté. Elle apprend le piano en autodidacte, en reprenant note à note l'album « Sheller en solitaire », sorti en 1991. Parmi les figures qui ont marqué son adolescence, elle désigne aussi Alain Souchon, Patricia Kaas, Kurt Cobain, Véronique Sanson…C'est après avoir assisté à la prestation émouvante d'un chanteur de bar avec accordéon qu'elle se décide à écrire elle-même ses propres chansons sur un petit clavier électronique, alors qu'elle étudiait la philosophie à l'université. Jeanne Cherhal évoque aussi son septième album, « Jeanne », qu'elle a écrit et réalisé avec son complice Benjamin Biolay. Après avoir percé dans la chanson française au début des années 2000, l'artiste de 47 ans continue, au piano, d'aborder des thèmes comme la vie, la féminité, le temps qui passe, l'époque post-MeToo, les rapports homme-femme, le couple et le désir.Cet épisode a été publié le 18 avril 2025.Depuis six saisons, la journaliste et productrice Géraldine Sarratia interroge la construction et les méandres du goût d'une personnalité.

Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!Why do you like the music you do? Is it as simple as “It's what I heard on the radio”? Or something deeper? People with elder siblings may be exposed to music earlier than first children. Jeff had an older brother, so was exposed earlier to cool music - Beatles, Janis, Hendrix, and so on. Mick was the eldest in his family and had to find his own taste. (No surprise considering what he listens to!) Were you bullied as a child? Influence! Did you share music with your friends? Influence! Did you have access to a good radio station? Or print media? Influence!! We talk about our early influences – musical & otherwise – and look at how they played a role in what we listen to today. In Rock News, Ringo has released a country album, and Toto is touring. Oh well, shouldn't take them long to play their 3 hits. You know Jeff's obsessed with AI, so he asked three AI brands to nominate the greatest albums of 1971. Not much variation, really. One day, we may ask them to understand quality, rather than sales figures, and see what they give us. Our Album You Must Listen to Before you Die is “Blue” by Joni Mitchell - an top grade album that deserves to be here. Mick references Atlantic Records' sampler called “Very Together” which featured “Carey” from this album, and pointed out a link between Joni Mitchell and Scottish hard rock band, Nazareth. How did YOUR tastes develop? Drop us a line & let us know. Enjoy!

In 2000, “John Titor” claimed to be a soldier from 2036—but leaked NSA docs suggest he was a CIA experiment to test disinformation tactics. This episode tracks Titor's IP to a Langley server, decodes his “2036 prophecies” as Cold War nuclear codes, and exposes the actor hired to play him. Featuring deepfake audio of Titor's “mother” admitting, “He's a character, like Bowie's Ziggy Stardust.”
In this episode, we talk to singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Rocket Stahr about his great animated rock opera Death Of A Rock Star. If you are into Glam Rock, 70s Rock, and Theater Rock, this episode is for you!

RockerMike and Rob Presents:Suzi RonsonSuzi Ronson (née Fussey) played a crucial behind-the-scenes role in shaping David Bowie's image during his Ziggy Stardust era. Born in England, she worked as a hairdresser in Beckenham when she first encountered Bowie and his then-wife, Angie Bowie. It was Suzi who gave Bowie the now-iconic red mullet haircut, which was inspired by a style from a Japanese fashion magazine. Impressed by her work, Bowie invited her to join his team as a personal stylist, making her the first woman to be part of his touring crew.During the early 1970s, Suzi traveled with Bowie and his band, the Spiders from Mars, styling his hair, helping with wardrobe, and supporting the overall theatrical vision of his performances. This period was one of the most visually striking and influential phases of Bowie's career.While working with Bowie, she met Mick Ronson, Bowie's lead guitarist and arranger. The two fell in love and eventually married, starting a family together. After Mick's passing in 1993, Suzi continued working in creative fields, including music production, writing, and storytelling.In recent years, she has shared her experiences from the Ziggy Stardust era through interviews and articles, giving fans a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes world of one of rock's most transformative periods. Her contributions to Bowie's image and legacy remain a vital part of his history.#SuziRonson #MickRonson#ZiggyStardust #DavidBowie#BowieStyle #GlamRock#SpidersFromMars #RockHistory#70sRock #HairAndFashion#MusicLegends #RockAndRollhttps://www.amazon.com/stores/Suzi-Ronson/author/B0CXJ9S28L?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=truehttps://www.instagram.com/suzironson?igsh=Y3FobWFtNml6ZDUzhttps://www.facebook.com/share/16MPXz9Wqc/?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://x.com/ronsonsuzi?s=21&t=Mzw5de5zsR-SDDbhyzH0Lg#classicrock #rockhistory #70smusic #musichistory #rockandroll #rocklegends
Glam rock was more than just a sound—it was a shift in how music, fashion, and identity intertwined. We explore the rise of Glam in the early ‘70s, with David Bowie as its central figure. Through alter egos like Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke, Bowie use theatricality, androgyny, and science fiction themes to push the boundaries of rock music and stardom. But Glam wasn't just Bowie. UK Artists like T. Rex and Slade, and Americans like Lou Reed and Alice Cooper each brought their own take, blending rock with elaborate visuals and a playful disregard for traditional norms. Glam faded after a few short years, but its influence is lasting. Glam style and attitude reappear, over and over, in Rock Music.

No musician is more closely associated with London or left more footprints than Bowie, and you can trace its influence on his life and work (and vice versa) through a series of landmarks from the suburbs to the centre. Author and curator Paul Gorman has just published an annotated street-map – David Bowie's London - listing the places that played a formative role in his world and music, the places he rehearsed, performed, filmed and recorded, the homes of friends and managers, his schools and the addresses where he lived, worked and was photographed, made connections, bought clothes and generally raised the temperature. We talk here about many of those old haunts and the stories attached to them, which include… … mysterious manager Ralph Horton who got him to change his name to Bowie and then vanished from the face of the earth. … the fate of Heddon Street, home of K-West and the Ziggy phone-box. … Marc Bolan refusing to let him sing at an all-night benefit at Middle Earth. … “the Fairy Godmother of the New Romantics” at the WAG Club. … when Lionel Bart came to Haddon Hall. … Bowie and Steve Marriott auditioning for the Lower Third. … how he levered his way into a Fabulous magazine fashion shoot. … “the end of the age of Showbiz”: performing Chim Chim Cher-ee at the Marquee when at a crossroads between rock and roll and cabaret. … the magical piano at the Trident Studios. … a chance encounter with the otherworldly Vince Taylor whose ‘UFO map' helped inspire the concept of Ziggy Stardust. … the legend of Mr Fish, creator of the man-dress on the cover of The Man Who Sold The World. … the days when people had a white Rolls Royce and matching Alsatian – and “the Great Sarong Scare of the ‘90s”. … and various fringe figures including his art teacher Owen Frampton, Konrads agents Bob Knight and Eric Easton, muse and heartbreaker Hermione Farthingale, producers Shel Talmy and Tony Hatch (“the original Mr Nasty from Opportunity Knocks”) and slum landlord and racketeer Peter Rackman.

By the time that Led Zeppelin was releasing their sixth studio album, they were solidly on top of the rock pantheon. They had just switched to Swan Song Records, their own label, and had plenty of time to create this double album work, Physical Graffiti. They had three sides-worth of new songs largely recorded at Headley Grange in Hampshire in early 1974, and they expanded it to a double album by including unreleased tracks from sessions for their previous three albums. Physical Graffiti went to number 1 on the UK chart and number 3 on the US charts immediately. They had planned to release the album in November 1974, but delays in producing the album's sleeve design pushed it back to February 1975. Demand was so strong that it became the first album to go platinum on advance orders alone.The album itself reflects a diversity that runs from hard rock to prog rock to funk - even country and honky-tonk get represented. The group never seemed too interested in creating single-friendly compositions, so many tracks run well over 6 minutes, along with some shorter instrumental numbers. Led Zeppelin was considered the biggest rock band on tour during this time, and Physical Graffiti was the album that wrapped up this period. Robert Plant was in a serious car accident with his wife in August 1975, and the group went on hiatus from touring until 1977. Many consider this album to be the high water mark for the Led Zeppelin discography. Bruce presents this monster double album for this week's podcast. KashmirThis is one of Led Zeppelin's signature songs. It started as an instrumental recording from Jimmy Page and John Bonham. Robert Plant wrote the lyrics while vacationing in southern Morocco (not Kashmir, as no band members had been there when this song was written). John Paul Jones plays mellotron and added the orchestration which was played by session musicians. All members of the band consider it one of their best tracks, and it has played in almost every concert since its debut.Trampled Under FootThis is a funk piece largely created by John Paul Jones. The beat was inspired by Stevie Wonder's “Superstition,” and the lyrics are drawn largely from Robert Johnson's “Terraplane Blues.” Jones originally created this in the soul genre, but John Bonham convinced the group to add a more funky feel. The Wanton SongMany Led Zeppelin songs have a title which does not appear in the lyrics, and this is one of those. Jimmy Page developed the riff in 1973 and brought it to the Physical Graffiti sessions. Page uses a backward echo on this, where the echo appears before the note. It was played during the 1975 tour but was dropped from the setlist thereafter, making it perhaps a deeper cut. Houses of the HolyThis track is one of the unreleased tracks from previous sessions. It was intended as the title track from their fifth album, but was considered too similar to other songs on the album and was dropped. Led Zeppelin never played this song live. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Movin' On Up (Theme from the television series “The Jeffersons”) This sitcom was a spinoff from “All In the Family” which got its start in January 1975. STAFF PICKS:Any Major Dude Will Tell You by Steely DanLynch kicks off the staff picks with the B-side from “Rikki Don't Lose That Number.” Donald Fagen says that the inspiration was hearing a lot of people using the term “dude” after they moved to L.A., finding the phrase funny and deciding to include it in a song. The idea is that times will get better, and hope is around the corner.Cat's In the Cradle by Harry ChapinRob brings us a folk rock story about a father who finds the tables turned. He didn't have time for his son as he was growing up, and his son doesn't have time for his father when he is older. The lyrics were inspired by a poem written by Chapin's wife regarding her first husband's strained relationship with his father.Angie Baby by Helen ReddyWayne features another storytelling song, this one with some spookiness. Angie is a girl of questionable sanity who lives in her own world at home with her parents. When a neighborhood boy decides to make advances on her when her parents are gone, Angie causes him to disappear into the music of her radio… It was a number 1 hit song.Changes by David BowieBruce closes out the staff picks with a song that largely flopped when originally released as a single in 1971. Bowie's “Hunky Dory” album did not do well until it got a second look after his 1972 release “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.” It was re-released in 1975 as a single and went to number 1 in the UK. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Bron-Yr-Aur by Led ZeppelinWe close out with some double dipping from Physical Graffiti for this acoustic instrumental.

This episode features George Underwood, album cover designer, artist and early schoolmate of David Bowie. After deciding that the music business was not for him, George returned to art studies and then worked in design studios as an illustrator. Initially he specialised in fantasy, horror and science fiction book covers. Most significantly, his art work for the first T Rex album and later David Bowie's Hunky Dory and Ziggy Stardust album covers established him as a leading and highly creative illustrator. Over this period George produced literally hundreds of book covers, LP and CD covers, advertisements, portraits and drawings, and today George is a fully recognised fine artist. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the very talented George Underwood. If you can, please support the Electronically Yours podcast via my Patreon: patreon.com/electronicallyours
No musical artist better personified the hedonism of the '70s than David Bowie. He captivated the imaginations of music fans all over the world with a dizzying array of creative alter egos; Major Tom, Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke among them, and his obsession with occultist Aleister Crowley drove him down a dark, excessive hole filled with cocaine, orgies, arrests, fascism, death and madness that very nearly destroyed him.
