Ciao Tutti!
Here's an obscure glam artifact from American Brett Smiley who obviously had a major Bowie fetish. This was an Andrew Loog Oldham production and it represents his total official recorded output when it was released as a single in 1974. Tragically, it sunk without a trace. Without question, it is a cracking song and it shoulda been a major hit. If you wanna hear more, you can pick up a copy of his unreleased recordings on the definitive RPM CD entitled Breathlessy Brett.
Cheers, and Happy Weekend!

Oldham produced this? Wow.
BTW, one of his later discoveries -- a Bowery Rolling Stones clone band called The Werewolves, who had at least two albums in the mid-to-late 70s -- may be worthy of future research.
I have both of those records Steve! Did you know he has a program on Little Steven's Underground Garage channel on Sirius? I was listening to him yesterday. He tells great stories.
Are those Werewolves records on CD?
I remember they were mediocre in an interesting way, but obviously it's been ages since I heard them....
Great tune! Thanks! And I love the art.
Today's verification word: "nogra" - another euphemism for whte people?
