I saw Gail on her first tour with Bowie, in fact it was only her 4th gig with him on the Outside tour in Toronto 1995. i was thrilled to see a chick rocking the bass. they didn't yet have the beautiful chemistry at that time. they clearly developed a gorgeous friendship/collaboration over the years. i feel equal parts admiration and envy. still deeply missing his extraordinary voice, there will never be another like him, alas.
Gail Ann is so BEAUTIFUL. I love her. Her spirit is so beautiful, a truly blessed and superbly talented artist a goddess. I would pay whatever to hear her perform Gail is a living legend a PURE SOUL. ☺ I pray David knew this, and loved her as much as her fans do and always will. Where are you? Gail Ann, Let that 💡 shine. Your 🎁 is so needed you have this Joan Baez thing about you that's so hot. Hail the sunshine.
Amazing girl. Voice and guitar. So sweet. During 1996 David went to Brasil in a near city of me and I lost the opportunity to see him and her. Sad decision. Today just memories.
thanks for uploading this - it brings the tears but sings of enduring love and true friendship !!!! "Ziggy played gui - tar - arhhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
Love your voice, as always. Thanks for keeping Dave alive, and loved. Your name will be remembered, as well as your voice, you guys were beautiful together. xxx
A voice and a guitar and the miracle takes place: here is a fragment of GailZiggyblackstar that, like a meteor, crosses our sky and excites us to the bottom of our hearts.
Gail Ann Dorsey is one of those rare talents who just takes your breath away with her superior playing ability, especially on the bass. In addition, she’s good at working a crowd...
+professormouse I agree! I recently saw an interview with her, where she discussed wanting to play guitar, but then moving on to bass. She's self-taught and an absolute pleasure. Her vocals are great, and I loved seeing her sense of humour and warm personality in this vid. She's Star Quality. I've got a crush... Lol...
Shes got the license to sing and play everything from David🙏Maybe one Day she make a record with her favorite Bowiesongs in her own way.Great musician and singer and artist.God Bless Her🙏
Well, there is the David Bowie Tribute Tour which is made up of Bowie's old band, including Gail, as well as other collaborators/friends like Brian Eno and Gary Oldman. They are going to cities that were important to David, like Brixton, Berlin, New York City, ect.
only recently discovered her absolutely spectacular and hauntingly beautiful voice I already knew she's an amazing musician but what a set of pipes WOW
By the time she'd joined the Bowie Band, GAD had already been a solo artist for some time, with two of her own albums under her belt. Along with Mick Ronson, Brian Eno, Reeves Gabrels, Mike Garson and a very few others she became one of Bowie's 'big guns'; a fellow artist who could not only play brilliantly and distinctively in both live and studio environments but could strongly contribute to arrangements and even collaborate with Bowie on compositions. This is a lovely, sweet, celebratory version of 'Ziggy Stardust'.
I always thought that the lyrics were slightly wrong.. Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly And the spiders from Mars. She played it left hand But made it too far Became the special one Now Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling She could leave 'em to hang 'Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan So where were the spiders, while the fly tried to break our balls With just the beer light to guide us So we bitched about her fans and should we crush his sweet hands? Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo The kid was just crass, he was the nazz With God given ass She took it all too far but boy could he play guitar Making love with her ego Ziggy sucked up into her mind Like a leper messiah When the kids had killed the one I had to break up the band Oh Yeah Ziggy played guitar Gail Ann Dorsey - please sing it like that for me
Gail Ann Dorsey is a star in her own right. Her voice has depth and soars with tender brilliance. Let's hear more and more of you!
She did David proud. What a gem. This is heavenly. What a gift they were to each other. Magic.
In my opinion, this is by far the best cover of Ziggy Stardust

I absolutely love her, her voice and her beautiful soul shines through. When I see her, I'm reminded of Joan Armatreding. Gail, like Joan, is sublime.
What a beautiful and talented woman.

Immortal song sung by a very talented artist.
Gail ann Dorsey is iconic as Mick Ronson in bowie's story. (to me)
That is one of the best Bowie covers I've ever heard. Amazing!
Gail, what a strong voice. She could sing all the harmonies and my mind would fill in Bowie. What a great collaboration all these years.
She is sooooooooooooo cool, love her to pieces !!!!

Note to current pop stars.
Take notes.
This is how it's done.
G.A.D. forever.
She has to be completely devastated by David's death. She played so many years in his band.
+eight inches I was thinking the same thing!
you could see there was a bond between the two on stage. So sad RIP
+eight inches Was just talking about the presence they had together on stage, saw them many times over the years...

I would have loved to see a show like that. I live in San Diego, can't remember the last time Bowie played here. Probably did L.A.
+eight inches March 29th !!
What a great cover!!!! And who could make it better than Gail!!!
Shes got the license to sing and play everything from David🙏Maybe one Day she make a record with her favorite Bowiesongs in her own way.Great musician and singer and artist.God Bless Her🙏
I wish Ann would consider doing a tour performing all the songs she played with David; That would be FUCKING AWSOME!
Well, there is the David Bowie Tribute Tour which is made up of Bowie's old band, including Gail, as well as other collaborators/friends like Brian Eno and Gary Oldman. They are going to cities that were important to David, like Brixton, Berlin, New York City, ect.
TheParagade Are there any West Coast shows planned? I'm in Northern California and would absolutely love to see the show!!!

A Gail Ann Dorsey très proche de nous
Bravo !! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Negri te amoooo!
love you
Gail is my QUEEEEN
I always thought that the lyrics were slightly wrong..
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly
And the spiders from Mars. She played it left hand
But made it too far
Became the special one
Now Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
She could leave 'em to hang
'Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan
So where were the spiders, while the fly tried to break our balls
With just the beer light to guide us
So we bitched about her fans and should we crush his sweet hands?
Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo
The kid was just crass, he was the nazz
With God given ass
She took it all too far but boy could he play guitar
Making love with her ego Ziggy sucked up into her mind
Like a leper messiah
When the kids had killed the one I had to break up the band
Oh Yeah
Ziggy played guitar
Gail Ann Dorsey - please sing it like that for me
SO
pretty
OMFG.
David Bowie was at this show--I am not sure if Gail knew prior or during the show that he was in the audience.
