Here's Carlos with the '75 Series I guitar played on 'Fame' and 'Young Americans' and other David Bowie hits. The guitar sold at auction recently for about $13,000 I think. I believe this pic is from the 'Glass Spiders' era. I have seen pics of the guitar posted here, but I do not recall seeing one with Carlos playing it with Bowie. drr |

Goodness gracious- I don't care how big a rock star you are.... wearing what appears to be a yellow womans blouse is no way to be caught on camera. Nice guitar. |

Well then again back then there was some question as to what was Bowies favorite "flavor of ice-cream", to put it mildly. Bowie did know how to pick good players though. If I recall correctly thats SRV you hear on "Lets Dance" album. |

You guys have met 'Ziggy', right? I thought the yellow shirt on the Thin White Duke and the garage band look of the combo was pretty tame. This character is one of Ziggy Stardust's alter-egos, Halloween Jack. |

If I recall correctly, that is Peter Frampton on the right. You are right Olie, good players. |
