Diamond Dogs original?

[astronette]

Does anyone know if the original Diamond lp had the Future Legend insert or was it only with reissues??

go to bowiewonderworld.com and email the Editor.

He should point you in the right direction. Further the site has a Bowie collectors link.

Thrasher - what stuff do you have that belonged to Bowie?!

[Thrasher1504]

wow!

Cheers mate. I think the worst thing is a make up kit that was bowie's. It has old tel numbers scribbled on a card inside it. I did try to trace the numbers but they too old now as the codes changed so often since. lol

Thanks for the link!

But the thing is with artists like Bowie.

Much of the stuff is only worth what collectors are happy to pay, such is his back catelog.

Be careful with sessions and bootlegs etc. He keeps the tighest ship in the business and will seek sellers with a passion. The whole Santa Monica 72 business (now officially available) is testament to his tight ownership. many people have people taken to court via Isolar (his recording company)

@Astronette-

There is some clothing, equipment like a microphone with leads etc, wrist bangles and other jewellery, session tapes (old c60 cassette tapes). There is a harmonica (mouth organ thing) and the make up kit as per my last message.

All the stuff can be verified. I have a crad from David to my brother with a note of thanks. Thats when he got the harmoinca

[astronette]

What was he thanking him for?

@Shadow Man-

I have no idea about anything you said there. I only ever liked DD album and a few other songs here and there.

@Astronette-

My brother worked with him. He worked within the music business. Not entirely sure what he done? I used to think he played in a band, well he did but, he is not famous for it though. lol

[astronette]

Cool!
You could prob make a bit of money with the stuff u have (that's if u really want to get rid of it). Lots of rip off types out there tho (as I am sure u know). Your collection sounds really interesting if it is all genuine stuff!

[Thrasher1504]

It's all genuine stuff I have proof of that. There is a ton of photos too with my brother and different bands/artists but, they are in the house not the garage. lol

My sister (older than both me and my bro) also met bowie and others through my brother. She is in a book about bowie (no idea which one) but we have the orig picture from the book. Looking at it now actually. lol

I have complete annals of Bowie, give me a date (exact) and I shall see if anyone comes up!!!!

[Thrasher1504]

The what of Bowie!!! Sound rude!

My brothers name is Ally (Alastair) my sister Jackie (Jacqueline) surname Campbell

Exact date? Pics taken backstage at Murrayfield. Think it was part of a tour called Serious Moonlight.

I will get in touch with my sister and ask her and repost here in a few days. She will likely know right date if that helps. There are loads of my bro and Bowie in many different places. Taken over a few years as the hair hair cuts have changed in them! lol

[Shadow Man]

I assume it is not the same Ally (Ali) Campbell from the atrocious UB40!!!

Can't find a direct reference to them, but the date was June 28th 1983.

What exactly did they do?

[Thrasher1504]

@Shadow Man-

You think I'd admit to being related to that Ali Campbell! lol

No, def not that one. How did you manage to work out the date? Niceone. I will confirm with my big sis.

I really don't know what my bro did for Bowie? I will ask my sis that too. My sister is a pilot. She never worked with Bowie. She just met him thru my bro.

[astronette]

This is so fascinating to me! I would be falling over myself if my brother knew Bowie!! :-)
Is your brother a session musician or something similar?? Did your brother play the harmonica??
