Bowie Heroes Musikladen 1978
Heroes from Musikladen (1978, 21 May Radio Bremen Studio 3). David Bowie with Carlos Alomar, Dennis Davis, George Murray, Adrian Belew, Roger Powell, Sean Mayes, and Simon House. Definitive live performance featuring Davis spectacular drum fills, Murrays galloping funk bass, Belew and Houses Fripp, Eno inspired searing drones, Carlos joyful grooving, Mayes steady keys, Powells power synth, and Davids passionate lead vocals. A brilliantly innovative yet faithful version of one of the very finest rock ballads. (This was part of an uploaded video of a rebroadcast that had been on YT several weeks after Davids passing, notably with better sound than other Heroesonly videos on YT at that time. That full video seems to have been since removed, but in 2019 an even better upload of a later rebroadcast was posted; while the volume is lower in it, the overall video, audio quality is much better, so its worth checking out (Heroes is 7:50) here: )
