Isolation is the dream-killer, not your attitude | Barbara Sher

According to Barbara Sher we have to change our common understanding of
why we so often fail to bring our dreams into reality – blaming bad
attitude, negative thinking or lack of effort. Heartfelt, funny and
surprising stories told by a lady who's been helping other people's
dreams for many decades.

Marianne Faithfull, David Bowie - I Got You Babe

Capital of Sorrow

Published on Jan 11, 2016

The duet was recorded for American television on October 19, 1973 at the Marquee Club in London.

The producer Burt Sugarman had approached Bowie about appearing on his late-night NBC program The Midnight Special.

According to the Ziggy Stardust Companion, Bowie agreed to appear on the show after being granted complete artistic control for a one-hour special.

He put together a cabaret-style show featuring himself and a couple of acts from the 1960s, performing on a futuristic set.

Bowie called it “The 1980 Floor Show,” as a pun on the title of his song “1984,” which was played during the opening title sequence.

Filming took place over two days. The audiences were composed of Bowie fan club members and other special guests.

Due to the cramped quarters in the nightclub, the camera crew wasn’t able to cover more than two angles at any moment, so Bowie and the others had to play the same songs over and over.

On the day “I Got You Babe” was filmed, the musicians and crew worked for ten straight hours.

Faithfull was invited to appear on the show as one of the back-up acts, along with The Troggs and the “flamenco rock” group Carmen.

At the very end of the evening, Bowie and Faithfull appeared onstage together–he in a red PVC outfit with black ostrich plumes (he called it his “Angel of Death” costume) and she in a nun’s habit that was, by more than one account, open in the back.

“This isn’t anything serious,” Bowie reportedly told the audience.

“It’s just a bit of fun. We’ve hardly even rehearsed it.”

Emerson, Lake and Palmer - Lucky Man

Lucky Man

He had white horses

And ladies by the score

All dressed in satin

And waiting by the door

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

White lace and feathers

They made up his bed

A gold covered mattress

On which he was led

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

He went to fight wars

For his country and his king

Of his honor and his glory

The people would sing

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

A bullet had found him

His blood ran as he cried

No money could save him

So he laid down and he died

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

Just Another Diamond Day is the great debut album by United Kingdom
singer-songwriter Vashti Bunyan.

However, Bunyan found the experience
frustrating, and decided to head for the Scottish islands in search of
an artistic commune supposedly established by Donovan.

She travelled
around the countryside with her partner Robert, in a horse-drawn wagon.

It was during these travels that she wrote the songs which would later
appear on Just Another Diamond Day.
