Freddi and the Dreamer

Youtube keeps recommending more and more esoteric bootlegs based on my interests. Notably, this week i listened to "Freddi and the dreamer: The Arnold Corns sessions".  This was a project where Bowie was going to turn his hairdresser into a popstar.  He must have been smoking some good hash because there's no way Freddi was going to be a star (not that Freddi anyway).  It's interesting to hear the embryonic versions of so many Ziggy songs. If this had come out and even been a mild success, He would have given away a side of great songs.  Like his nemesis, Jimmy Page, DB may have made his deal with Ole scratch shortly after and the rest is rock and roll history (or suicide).
