It's crap! haha. I try though. I've got that intro sussed though. It's a capo on fret one with a Bm taking the 1st finger on and off the 5th string, 2nd fret (relation to capo) to get that sound.

Obituary: Mick Ronson | The Independent | The IndependentI was quite a Bowie fan back in the day, my older brother was a Bowie freak with the silver platform boots and dyed quiff hairdoo! Loved the stuff upto and including ‘Station to Station ‘but my interest waned after that,I particularly liked his white boy Philadelphia Soul period of ‘David Live’ and ‘Young Americans’
it was through Bowie i got into Lou Reed and the VU who I still prefer.
My admiration of him soured due to his treatment of Mick Ronson, who was not only his guitarist and sideman but also responsible for the musical arrangements on his albums upto ‘Diamond Dogs’
it was Mick that was responsible for making the ‘Transformer‘ album so great as
Reed and Bowie spent most of the time out of their heads on drugs.
Mick died a pauper and was only helped by Ian Hunter and Joe Elliott in his terminal years.
I met Mick and Ian a couple times and both came across as down to earth ,sound guys, I never met Bowie but I get the idea he was a bit of a twat.
And yes the Glass Spider gig at Maine Road was piss poor.

Just as an aside I just watched the latest Beato vid, he listens to music exactly like I do, sort of dissects it. I know after about a minute whether something is worth carrying on with....I enjoyed watching this, thought you guys might.
Incidentally I thought the last song was by far the best.

Rick is a dead ringer for my brother. He died in the summer, watching him gives me the chills. They are so alike. I enjoyed his interview with Brian May the other week.

Good call...Especially It Bites ...John Mitchells solo in the live version of Wind That Shakes The Barley just blows me away.. Sends shivers down my spine.. I met John Beck the keyboard player once, great guy. Spent an hour talking to him.So I’m 100% confident (have been since no 89 actually) that four of my British Bands won’t be there.
Supertramp great era from Crime of the Century through to Breakfast in America. Particularly liked Roger Hodgson songs and they were one of my wife’s favourites.
Frost great Prog band with the amazing John Mitchell on Guitar. Listen to the debut album especially the title track and Black Light Machine.
It Bites forget Calling all the Hero’s and listen to Once around the World title track. Pop/Classic rock with an infusion of prog - Oh and John Mitchell in two albums.
Magenta Welsh prog band who wear their Yes,Oldfield and Renaissance influences on their sleeve.Check out The 27club or Metamorphosis for a start.
