Tin Machine

[Seymouro]

This cover of John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" is simply wicked...

[Grado]

Pretty cool.   Singer sounds like Bowie.

👍

[Seymouro]

That is Bowie, my friend.

The band consists of Bowie, the Sales' brothers (yes, Soupy Sales' kids) - Tony Fox Sales on bass and Hunt Sales on drums. Guitarist Reeves Gabriel later co-founded The Cure.

Tin Machine was cool. I still have the first album on CD

I can't believe this came out in 88. Just doesn't seem like it was that long ago... damn.

FYI, I played a Reeves Gabrels signature guitar at Joes Music in Eastpoint. It's a really cool guitar and that dude is a monster player.

[Seymouro]

Cool...didn't know you played that guitar in that store, or had that record.

I remember Tim Machine as being pretty radical at the time and different than all of the other Bowie stuff but maybe it was just my perception. I also didn't realize it was that long ago. Time sure does fly. I need to revisit.

I still think it sounds radical compared to all of his other stuff but it could still be our perception because what sounds radical to us may not be to others.
