BOWIE RECORDING ROCK 'N' ROLL WITH ME ~ AWESOME OUTTAKES'74
Ойын-сауық
It's amazing the treasure you find washed up on the shore....
David recording Rock n Roll with Me at Olympic Studios Recorded January 1974
A happy surprise in a season of unhappy ones is the recent leak of an Olympic Studios tape of “Rock ‘n’ Roll With Me” from January 1974. The source is, apparently, someone who made a digital copy of the tape, which was auctioned off by Omega last fall. The winning bidder paid £2,100. Now the world has it-who knows, perhaps the bidder was feeling generous.
As per Omega’s description of the session, from 9 January 1974: “The tape features Bowie pausing frequently to direct the musicians - in total there are six different takes with three being complete. The label lists a final version as “MASTER” but this is no longer present on the reel, presumably having been spliced off to be compiled with other album master tracks, possibly for further overdubbing etc.”
This is exactly the sort of thing-a series of studio takes, with Bowie shifting lyrics around, trying out phrasings and tempos, hitting bum notes, cracking up-that he had no interest in ever releasing. “Official” Bowie outtakes are almost always a complete performance, whether it’s a demo, live recording, fully-mixed studio take, alternate mix of a song, or, a DB favorite, a sketch that he monkeyed with years later to create a fake “lost” song (see “I Pray Ole”). Twenty minutes of Bowie running Mike Garson, Herbie Flowers, and Tony Newman through a song that he’d not quite finished: not so much.

Always a great song from the legend; the chords progressions & shifts... never unforgettable... the official version of this song is a hidden gem in his eclectic famous canon of music
I know that David was adverse to releasing this sort of thing - outtakes, demos, etc - so this is really one of many Holy Grails that must be out there. I really can’t thank you enough for this. What an uplifting gem in these rather dark times. Wasn’t this co-written by David’s old school chum, Geoffrey MacCormack? He was credited as Warren Peace, so when it came to being paid royalties, David’s manager at the time, Tony Defries, said that Warren Peace was a pseudonym of Bowie’s, so MacCormack got stitched up. Having said that, MacCormack was one of Bowie’s backing singers throughout the Diamond Dogs period and travelled with Bowie first class all over the world touring. What a gig that was!

Isn't it amazing, the amount of work that goes into a song? We take the finished product for granted. Thanks! Makes you appreciate the song so much more. Hard to believe that it's 46 ago that Diamond Dogs was released. May 24th, 1974. I remember buying it on vinyl. Just about wore it out!

@Robin Lyn21 Bowie was a craftsman,he knew what he was doing,may seem hard to you but this is how musicians work.
Listening to him, just makes me smile. It is so interesting, hearing the process. I love the album version, I love this! Thank you for sharing.
That laugh at 9:39... that's the Andy Warhol laugh. So nice!
Bowie forever and ever ❤️
i miss his voice. sweet man
Just Brilliant, its great to hear the evolution of this track...one of my favourites too :)
This is absolutely Sublime! What a find! Mike Garsons piano is exquisite - and only Da Bu could dare break a band like The Spiders and write tunes with such amazing structure melody and text like almost everything on Diamond Dogs (which btw I skived skool on the monday morning it was released in the UK hoping to be the first kid in Edinburgh Scotland to proudly sport it under my arm against my ultra smart ROYAL HIGH SCHOOL uniform with a pair of concealed platform shoes! I was 13 but looked 17!!!! What a Magical day to remember who to meet? 👽☠😈
Jeez Louise! This is great....what a treasure
My favourite lp still,thanks so much for putting this amazing outtake on here..really captures Bowie working on a fantastic song..thanks again stay well and safe

As someone who was inspired by David's work, it's so great to hear the refinements as the track is developing. It gives me a good feeling to know I'm been on a similar path/writing process after hearing this. Thanks so much for sharing!

Just Wonderful! Thank you for all your work in getting this video recording compiled. It is great to hear the process and Bowie at work on this very moving song. I personally remember buying the Diamond Dogs album as a teenager when it was first released from a little independent record shop in Crouch End. ... I’d been saving my pennies from Saturday jobs. I loved that album. 💖🤩⭐️🤩💜
Brilliant song & sound
This is excellent!
Great stuff sir I commend you
Pure gold ⚡️🙏😍
Jeesis, what great songwriting. This is rough run-throughs but still sounds powerful and memorable.
O my god let go back. to a great time miss. you Bowie
Hiya, this is fab, love hearing him laugh! Love the song as well; sing it (badly) to hubby! Be well! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️
