- Well our new patron Davy wanted to take a bathroom break from "Aladdin Sane" and so we are taking a pit stop at "The Man Who Sold The World"! We will back to our usual album reaction next wednesday. Anyways, THIS WAS AWESOME. I heard the live one but this is even better! Mick is just a beast and so is the bassist/producer.

Great. Thanks. You are brilliant. Excellent. Scott Bournemouth Dorset England.
I loved this song and then "David Live" came out and that Live version is fire! The band is so good on that album and the addition of David Sanborn on sax is amazing.
The man who sold the world is the work of the genius.
Bowie is incredible.
Please start reacting to the entire 1970 album, 'The Man Who Sold The World', it's fantastic!
Please react to "All The Madmen" next!
Agree. One of his best...
David Bowie is dead. I am 64 years old. But I can tell you that I played this album over and over when I was about 12 or 13 years old. I first heard it in the basement bedroom of my older cousin. My folks were visiting my uncle and aunt. They wanted to get rid of me so send me down to my cousins bedroom to play records while he was out somewhere. This was the album I picked. Weird how music can bring back far distant memories. When I got my own stereo, this was one of my first records to buy. Great song to hear again.
A journalist asked Bowie why he was dressed as a woman on the sleeve: "What do you mean?" "Well, you're wearing a dress" "Yes, but it's a man's dress" And indeed Bowie had asked a designer for a man's dress to wear on the cover.
Another brilliant Bowie album.
The entire album is so good, just like Ziggy was! My favorite song is 'She Shook Me Cold', very, very heavy. I read somewhere that Bowie said there was a lot of smoking hash during this time.
Great album and song! When i was 15 i was on a mission to win this one on the boardwalk at the jersey shore. I did, still have it but VERY worn out. You should also check out the version of this song on David live. Killer arrangement on that one (this coming from a total ronson fanatic!)
The Band is On Fire 🔥
Mick Ronson’s 1st Appearance on a David Bowie Album
Earl Slick does unreal lead guitar on this song and a shit-load of other songs on David Live, his first live album (2LP set). Was released 1974ish if I remember correctly. Have you ever heard dueling guitars? Imagine if you will guitar vs. a saxophone. Listen to this song live. See if you like it. 🖖
Some old Bowie .. so good.
Ooh, you may yet do Quicksand, which is awash with references to Crowley, Golden Dawn, and so on. That’s one of my all-time faves ❤
One of mine, too.
Hunky Dory, great album
Bewlay Brothers also killer on Hunk Dory.
@@MarkCox21125150 So true - awesome album.
Tony said of all the albums he's produced, and hes produced a lot, this one's his favorite.
If you're uncertain about David's voice you have to take this album on a drive through a long rural roaf like when my gf and I would drive from Leesburg, VA up into WV in a big circle while gazing at the passing landscape.
Terrific song and the entire record is an absolute masterpiece.
So true.
Tony Visconti on bass. Wow.
please do a full album reaction. All the mad men is the best song for me. The producer is also the bassist which really can be heard in the mix. love it. Great reaction.❤
Astounding track. What an album ❤️
One of the greatest ever Bowie tracks - and albums.
What a great album. Still rocks 54 years on. Still go the original vinyl album.
Bowie and Ronson were separated for 20 years until 1993 when Ronson was suffering from cancer and Bowie called him to perform at the Freddy Mercury tribute concert. ....it was Ronson's last performance and Bowie's tribute to his old colleague.....you can see the song Heroes with Queen+Bowie+Ronson at Wembley Stadium
@@Mente-Cuerpo5 My Favorite Version of the Song Heroes
This song and this album are a window into a little parallel universe where David Bowie became a heavy metal pioneer.
If you don’t like hard rock, this will make you rethink that. How could anyone not like this? I love the way Mick Ronson plays the guitar. His taste is perfect. I’d listen to anything he’s part of. I am so glad I got to see him play. And Bowie of course is genius.
Might I recommend another reasonably lengthy tune, namely 'Cygnet Committee', from this albums predecessor 'Soace Oddity'.
Fantastic song. I once recited it in a class at college. (Circa 1979). The professor and class looked at me strangely.
Last year saw live a band called Holly Holly. Tony Visconti on bass and Heaven 17's singer, Glen. The player lots of early Bowie songs, including this one. It was awesome
After starting with Ziggy and Aladdin Sane I then went back to Space Oddity, The man who sold the world and Hunky Dory, what a great journey that was! Then I was back on track for all of his subsequent releases until I parted ways in the 80's!
The darkness of this album reminds me of Black Sabbath a bit; in a way this could be Bowie's 'take' on their style. This album came out the same year as Sabbath's first album, so I wouldn't call it copycat by any means, but it shows how two great artists often explored the same paths in that era.
I love how heavy it gets! Bowie knows when to bring the heat. Both micks are a fantastic combo for him.
@@L33Reacts You're gonna LOVE the rest of the album!
Mick Ronson 🎸🔥🔥🔥
I bought the '90s Rykodisc CD reissue: It has at least 4 different covers used for the album. The U.S. cartoon one is pretty weird, indeed.
Yep. It’s going to be all The Man Who Sold the World all day. 😊
Tony Tony Visconti went on the produce the black album for the Damned. "Curtain Call" remains to this today to be absolutely epic in every way. It feels like reactors don't like bands that don't seem popular enough to get views, it's a shame when masterpieces get forgotten after a while.
Ken Scott was one of five engineers for the Beatles
Visconti's bass is great throughout the whole album.
The entire album is excellent. Highly recommend listening to the entire album. Not a weak song on it.
The building on the background of the alternate cover is where David's brother Terry who was was a patient, Is a mental institution.
Always wonder if the lovely mid song switch up inspired the switch up on Paranoid Android.
Deeping respect for his 🎶
You should listen to Friends of Mine by The Guess Who from the Wheatfield Soul album. It starts like a normal tune for 20 seconds or so then goes off the deep end.
An era in which Bowie happened to music....
Tony Visconti has been a guest recently on your fellow reactors, Rob Squad Reactions, providing insight, anecdotes and background on some Bowie and T. Rex songs. I believe he's still currently touring a Bowie tribute/retrospective. Cool AF, dude 😎
😊🤙🏼🎶🔥❤️🍁❤️✨️🕊
One of the many things which are unique about Bowie is the way he could totally change his voice. In tone, range, even accent. Famously, when he did "This is not America" with Pat Metheny, after they had basically finished the recording, David asked if Pat had any female singers to add backing vocals. Metheny didn't, so David went into the booth & put down the 2 "female" vocals himself. (Singing the "sha lala lala") ua-cam.com/video/eJ1P2wJijfk/v-deo.html
Tony Visconti played bass and produced The man who sold the world album.
That breakdown with guitar and bass sounds like early Sabbath.
❤
Listen to Saviour Machine off this album and you'll see that Bowie nailed today's presidential situation in the US.
And the rise of A.I.
Unnecessarily good - haha!
Kurt cobain the man who sold the world.
1970.
The rest of the album isn't far from Death Metal. LOL
This is his most metalish album until the 90s when he did Tin Machine with Reeves Gabrels.
Check out "Running Gun Blues" or "Madmen".
Production wasn't up to Bowie standards on this one....sounds more like tinny free form noise
