David Bowie - Jean Genie TOTP audio recording

[Mark Kerridge]

Just found this on the Web:- a recording of David's performance from the 4/1/73 edition; it's about halfway down the page.

The audio is not particularly good quality but perfectly listenable:

There was some speculation that the performance was from the 28/12/72 edition (see attached):

However, as the 28/12/72 edition does exist, we can discount this.

ive done some research and it did feature on 25/12/72 show (at the end) and 04/01/73

[Neil Barker]

How did you find that out, Pete?

[Stephen Doran]

was this the top 3s of 1973? ;D

my version of the database

now if you also cast your mind back to i love 1970

the jimmy savile intro (forget the synthesizer music which is a false overdub)

the 04/01/73 saville intro goes with the jean genie footage (although it's audio) it might actually survive at the BBC as videotape hmm!!!!
