Where Is The ENCORE ????????
When I originally saw this concert on TV as a teen - it concluded with a blistering encore of Jean Genie by Mick Ronson assisted by his idol Jeff Beck. It looked like a scene orchestrated by Vince McMahon of wrestling fame with each of the guitar slingers firing blazing riffs back and forth at each other. Did Bowie leave this off because of some kind of Beck-ola pay-ola? Did the amazing Ronson, like the lighters that bear his name, shine too brighty at the end of the concert? Only David knows for sure. There can be no conclusion to this show without that finale. Why reissue it yet still incomplete. Check your local boot-legger for this missing cherry. Deliberate omissions like this is why the fans deserve some kind legal swapping of discarded gems!
