From the original seeder's notes:
This is the third (now, fourth - Goody) issue of the Aylesbury concert (Close To The Golden Dawn 2003 and The Spiders From Aylesbury 2003) but this time the sound quality is a bit clearer. It has a slightly longer intro as well: If we all move up just a little bit "you know" get closer.

Many thanks to ***OUTSIDER*** for the Rattle Snake silver.



From the original liner notes:
What we have here is one of the rarest Bowie recordings of all time - the Pre-Ziggy Stardust Show, only weeks before Bowie had his first meeting (September 10th 1971) with Andy Warhol at the Factory in New York.

At Aylesbury, Bowie performs with Michael Ronson (lead guitar), Mick Woodmansey (percussion), Trevor Bolder (bass guitar), Tom Parker ex Animals (piano).

Weeks later Bowie and his new band would start rehearsals at the Underhill Rehearsals Studios South London, the new band would soon be named the Spiders and Ziggy would be there. The rest is history as they say.

Enjoy!

Sorry it took so long for me to discover and fix it, which came about as a result of David's passing.

Goody's notes:
Pitch was approx. 40 cents flat.
TomP worked on selection of the stronger channel of each track, producing the double-mono result.
