In celebration of the 45th anniversary of Diamond Dogs, there is a 1-track digital single of the original single mix of Rebel Rebel released today.
The original single mix of Rebel Rebel featured on the 2016 boxset ’Who Can I Be Now?’ was taken from a pristine copy of a 45rpm vinyl single from the time. The original tape (which had been missing since the mid-1970s), has now been discovered and remastered for this special one-track digital single.
The newly discovered and mastered version, has here been synced to the classic video sshot at the TopPop studios in Hilversum, Holland, directed by Rien van Wijk. It was broadcast on 4 March 1974. In the absence of a video clip for Rebel Rebel, the TopPop performance has become the defacto official video.
Later that same day, February 13, 1974. Bowie attended a press conference, at the Amstel Hotel, Amsterdam, where he received an Edison award for ’Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars’.
Bowie wore a Freddie Burretti-designed outfit, that was inspired by Carmen, the flamenco rock group that had appeared on the 1980 Floor Show, in October 1973. Bowie: “I had conjunctivitis, so I made the most out of it and dressed like a pirate. Just stopped short of the parrot. I had this most incredible jacket that I was wearing that night. It was a bottle-green bolero jacket that Freddie made me, and he got an artist to paint, using the appliqué technique, this supergirl from a Russian comic (Octobriana) on the back. But I took the jacket off during the press conference, and somebody stole it.“
At the end of the video, I’ve included a little footage from that Amsterdam conference, and that jacket!
Hope you dig it!
More videos to follow, so please keep your electric eye on me babe!
I don’t own the rights, and I’m not making any money out of this etc. Just a fan making videos for other fans.
