Phantom 2,533 Posted January 25, 2016 Bowie takes the piss - http://pitchfork.com/news/63059-hear-david-bowie-impersonate-bruce-springsteen-neil-young-iggy-pop-lou-reed-tom-waits-in-newly-unearthed-recording/ Back in 1985, when Bowie was recording the theme to Julian Temple's British rock musical Absolute Beginners at London's Westside Studios, he took a break, fired up a backing track, and reeled off an impressive string of musical impersonations. Among them are Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Tom Waits, and Anthony Newley. Some of them are quite good and you can tell who they are meant to be. and a few others could just as well have had Mike Yarwood doing the impersonation.

Deathray 2,940 Posted January 25, 2016 You can tell he did the Springsteen one and there just thought - you know what I'll carry on with some more. It's by far the best. The Tom Waits one is a close second. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, AFAIK, Wilson couldn't sing but got serviced by Porn Star Mary Millington and Lady ( Marcia Williams ) Falkender and, according to David 'Im not mad' Icke Ted Heath was part of the illuminati, an alien Lizard and, of course, did 'loads for children' So no Righteous Brothers or summat.

SC http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/david-bowie-coke-fuelled-closet-7326063?ICID=FB_mirror_main That's an old and fairly well-known rumour.
