How many times I've heard this solo that last note always give me the shivers. Luv you Mick.
When Ronson comes in heavy, it is just heaven, lays me flat.
The powerful juxtaposition of the internal fire in Mick's playing and his outward angelic countenance -- the platinum hair a halo surrounding his smiling face -- is simply mesmerizing. In Moonage Daydream, he hits the reverb note and simply puts the guitar down to let it sing on its own. He was masterful.
Mick solo is too extraordinary for description, it's simply mind-blowing.
Mick Ronson musical genius taken much to soon . R.I.P Mick
There are not enough suitable words in the English language to describe how this music moves me, especially smiling Mick at the end.
Mick's playing electric guitar, piano, written the strings and obviously solo at the end. His contribution to these songs is HUGE
Fantastic. Thank you for posting this. No fakes here. You laid the real thing on us.
Amazing. Mick is missed.
This brilliant for enabling you to hear (and learn?) all the electric guitar techniques Ronno uses during the verses to embellish Bowie’s beat up old 12 string acoustic. Gives a whole new insight into the recording process of a classic album
One of the greatest Les Paul solos of all time....
Ronno is a Lej...!
Very nice thanks Colin. Always great to see Mick Ronson performing.
Mick was the coolest guitar player of them all...he had that "it" factor...
omg Mick Ronson was a true genius.
And I can now hear the string arrangements that I'd never really paid attention to. @2:48
without Mick there could be no Ziggy
Mick and David rip.
Great to hear all the detail in Ronson's part. The solo on this one is out of this world.
Fantastic
the late great mick ronson
Thank uuuuuuuu
wow
Que lindooooooo
As a young teenager in the seventies I used to listen to the guitar over and over. For me it personified, and still does, the electric guitar. Mick's playing was like the love of one's life, never needed another. Bowie was mostly crap both before and after Mick Ronson- end of.
WOW !!!
Amazing....the wonderful string arrangement that you don't quite catch on the whole track. 😲😲😲
Mick played with Bowie till the end, a legend who didn't look after his money aswell as he could have done. His talent and the music he made, not just for Bowie, but many other people, he just wasn't money savvy or put himself up front.
What planet you on, Ronno was on either 30 pound or 50 pound Ronno should of been on what Bowie was on at least..
@@mikereed8181 if you read or watch anything about Mick you will know that he was skint for most of his career.
@@craighudson7294 yeah because Bowie and is management was greedy bastard's Ronno should of been paid more than anyone on that set up because he did most of the work
@@mikereed8181 Mick wasn't very business orientated and didn't charge other bands/musicians for his work, not just Bowie. He also squandered alot of his money and made bad investments. Bowie did help him tremendously towards the end though. Interviews with Micks wife are very interesting.
@@craighudson7294 yeah well he never had money Bowie's management messed Ronno up Ronno was most successful without Bowie then he was with Bowie
Love this! Do you know where the footage is from?
+Jamie J Dunn The Mick Ronson footage is from the John I'm only dancing video outtakes, shot in America by Mick Rock.
What can I say
stary francine dancer
Mick Ronson is tragically underrated. There is no “Bowie sound“ without this amazing guitarist.
Absolutely right. ❤
You are so right!
Mick Ronson . . . . underated? Definitely not.
We know he was a phenomenal guitarist
Yeah Bowie would of been a nobody if it wasn't for Ronno, Mick could of done anything in musical circles Ronno didn't need Bowie to become a successful musician, he was just something special, but It didn't matter who Ronno played he made them sound better..
@@mikereed8181 Oh Bowie would NEVER have been a nobody. That was never an option for a young, ambitious, talented songwriter and performer like him. Ronson was an excellent guitarist and was the greatest fit for that era of Bowie's career.
