Bowie at the Beeb is a compilation album first released in 2000. Originally, it came in a three CD set, the third, bonus CD being a recording on the June 27, 2000 (2000-06-27) at the Portland BBC Radio Theatre. Later editions contain only the first two CDs."Wild Is the Wind" is a song written by Dimitri Tiomkin and Ned Washington. The track was originally recorded by Johnny Mathis for the 1957 film Wild Is the Wind. The song was very popular and was one of five songs nominated for an Academy Award; it was sung by Johnny Mathis at the March 1958 Oscar presentations. It was later covered by Nina Simone on the album Wild Is The Wind (1966). David Bowie recorded a version of it in 1976 for his album Station to Station. Bowie was an admirer of Simone's style, and after meeting her in Los Angeles was inspired to record the song for his album.In 1981, an edited version of Bowie's recording was issued as a single by RCA to promote the compilation ChangesTwoBowie. Despite relations with RCA being at an all-time low (he would only record the Baal EP for the label before signing with EMI in 1983), Bowie consented to appear in a video. This was a simple affair, featuring Bowie and the musicians performing the track in a circle, filmed in monochrome by David Mallet. The single reached #24 in the UK, and Bowie would perform the track on his Serious Moonlight and 2000 tours.

Jul 23, 2008 - Come ebbi modo di dire in Udo, poi bis e ora ter, questa versione è da paura. Ricordo il mio commento, affermavo che qui credo abbia raggiunto il massimo come tonalità e capacità di perforare qualsiasi muro. Anche il più sordo dei sordi capterebbe il feeling di questa interpretazione. Enorme Duca!

Jul 23, 2008 - hai ragione!... come sempre!bacio

Jul 24, 2008 - Posso permettermi di dire che l'altra versione del 2000 at the beep e' molto piu' bella e coinvolge anche il pubblico (quella con la giacca nera) :-)
moondustx8 Says:
Jul 24, 2008 - ascolta quella del 2000 con la giacca nera !!!! kisses :-)..come dicevo a Udo
moondustx8 Says:
Jul 24, 2008 - ... Comunque strepitosamente bella .. di una bravura sconvolgente, con una voce sublime, sovrana, interpretazione eccellente, un capolavoro !!!!
lnlduck Says:

moondustx8 Says:
Jul 30, 2008 - Si infatti, ma sono due, ... il 23 giugno 2000 per TFI Friday di Channel 4, ma la piu' bella e' del 27 giugno 2000 al BBC Radio Theatre (Dove ha la giacca nera appunto) :-)
udolamentiter Says:
Jul 30, 2008 - Rispondo ...io...cerco di recuperare la versione che di 4 gg dopo...poi decido io :-)
