I was 10 in 1993 so I clearly wasn’t watching it! I’d also never heard this one before I got the box. I think it got a little lost even though Bowie himself loved it.

I was lucky to see Soundgarden when they came through with Nine Inch Nails. To this day it’s one of my favorite concerts I’ve ever been to. I didn’t get a shirt because I won tickets and that was the only way I could afford to go back then.

We stupidly skipped that local show because Matt Chamberlain was behind the drum kit rather than Matt Cameron. Neither my husband nor I are huge NiN fans, so we justified not going. Regret that a bit now.

Our last ever SG show was the Superunknown 20th anniversary show at Webster Hall in NYC in June 2014. Tix were $19.94 each, and they played Superunknown in entirety, front to back. Encore was Outshined and Rusty Cage. I'm still haunted by Chris saying that night that they'd be back there to play King Animal on its 20th anniversary. 😢

I have the poster from that night hanging over one of my KALLAX.

It was a decent BBC drama about a young Indian lad who gets “adopted” by London hipsters in the 60’s and 70’s as a kind of guru - queue lots of sex scenes and orgies - hence why I watched it! Quite good but of it’s time - it was repeated recently and hasn’t aged well - Bowie loved the book it was based on as it’s very much based on his Beckenham Arts Lab lifestyle pre fame and was very pleased to be involved with the tv series soundtrack- even wrote a Ziggyesque title track - for me it’s his best album of the 90’s
 
Herbie Hancock, Carlos Santana - Live Under Sky 1981 (Hi Hat, 2020 Unofficial Pressing)
Ginger Baker & Graham Bond - Live Bremen 1970 (Rox Vox, 2021 Unofficial Pressing)

I found these bootleg live recordings at a local carboot last week. Clearly bootlegs, but the sound quality of the Ginger Baker/Graham Bond is really great. The Herbie/Santana is less good but the music itself is fantastic.
