hmm...

ok - while I will give him - it was filled with great ideas, and parts of it were definitely cool... but there - well, was something about it - that left me kinda like 'so what'

sure, there's no way I could ever do that kind of stuff, and also I'm not that huge into turntablism (with a few exceptions, of course)

but like - what was the significance of him flipping around the one deck? I mean, why not just have it be flipped like that in the first place?

it also felt pre-planned as fuck, which, I guess - on one hand is ok, but on the other... it just kinda irked me that everything he played was specifically marked ahead of time

and I absolutely and totally hated the part where he put the two different needles on the individual record. Sure, I'll give him - it's a great idea, but to me - it just came out as a garbled mess

so like - it's one of those deals where you go, man - it's cool, but it definitely left a bad taste in my mouth

and here's a video I found

It's a cover of the David Bowie / Marc Bolan collaboration "Madman", by the group "The Cuddly Toys" The video was shot on part of the set of Ridley Scott's "Alien", shortly after the film was completed.

oh, and before anyone goes "wait, there's no Bowie / Bolan track called 'madman'" here's the info about it ->

available only as rehearsals with Marc Bolan, for the appearance on his Marc Show (in which it was never performed). Several takes are released in bad quality on Sleeping Next To You (Funny Tunes M 5616). In 1995, the very limited edition Marc Bolan With David Bowie And Other Friends (Bolan Collectors Series MBCS102) CD appeared, with all takes of 'Madman' and 'Sleeping Next To You' in very good sound quality.



anyways - here's that cover version of "madman"
