    Legendary guitarist Earl Slick speaks candidly with SongDivision founder Andy Sharpe about his work with David Bowie and John Lennon. He describes what it’s like to meet and work with such huge stars, their different audition and songwriting processes, and how he didn’t remember meeting Lennon (but Lennon remembered meeting him) at the recording of the Bowie/Lennon classic ‘Fame’. Yes folks, it was 1975!
    Filmed and recorded at the Gibson Showroom and backed by the fabulous SongDivision Las Vegas band, the interview includes three great live performances:
    'Rebel Rebel' - David Bowie
    ‘Nobody Told Me’ - John Lennon
    ‘The Jean Genie’ - David Bowie
    Earl Slick is a regular feature musician on SongDivision events around the world.

      I sure would like to see Mr.Slick tour. I saw him on the Station to Station tour with Bowie, but I'd like to see him on his own.

    Earl Slick is rock n roll. He can’t help it. It’s in his DNA. Love his tone and his licks. Also love his Brooklyn attitude of not being intimidated.

      Earl Slick acknowledges Mick Ronson as Bowies best guitarist! He also played with Ian Hunter on the 1977 Overnight Angels tour. Small pool of super talented guitarists out there!

      Yeah Mick Ronson was definitely the guitar player when I think of Bowie.

    I was at the '74 Diamond Dogs concert in Ottawa. He played for only 45 minutes and some of the local toughs from my hometown decided to start a riot in protest. Chairs flew on stage and general mayhem ensued. Ah to be young and crazy again.
