“Let me put my arms around your head”

 

Back on January 20 we posted a piece here that commenced thus:

 

“Generally agreed to have been taped on January 17 1973 (while The Jean Genie was at its peak of #2 on the official UK singles chart), there is some confusion as to when the actual broadcast of David Bowie on Russell Harty Plus took place.

 

We’re going with today’s date (which was a Saturday and in keeping with other broadcast dates of RHP), unless one of you out there has some other definite proof of broadcast, such as a TV listing magazine. (It worked last time we asked)”

 

Well,

Happy Birthday Rebel Rebel and YouTube

Submitted by Total Blam Blam

“Looks like you've been there too”

 

As Valentine’s Day draws to a close in the UK, we trust YouTube had a happy 10th birthday and we celebrate the release of the Rebel Rebel 45.

However, even though the press ads back in 1974 claimed the track was “A VALENTINE DAY RELEASE”, the single didn't actually come out till the following day, February 15 1974.

So what better way of celebrating both facts than watching the Reality Tour live version of Rebel Rebel on YouTube now?
