Paralyzed by The Legendary Stardust Cowboy
“The most genuinely exuberant performance ever captured on record. I first heard this when I was 11 - I love it now as I loved it then. That probably means I haven't matured. What the hell. And rest.”

A bugle, drums, banjo, some whoopin'& a hollerin'.
He's a star.
This is so bad that it's good. Bowie was so inspired, this is where he got the name "Ziggy Stardust" from.

Sorry the video quality isn't too good on this one, but it's good enough. I first heard this song on our local FM "underground" station in 1967 or 1968. As I liked (and still like) music that is a little off kilter, "Paralyzed" immediately caught my attention. Understandably, the song didn't get much airplay, and I never really knew who performed it. I tried to track it down occasionally through the years with no luck. These days, of course, virtually everything is findable, and I finally reconnected with the song. Unbeknownst to me until recently. the Legendary Stardust Cowboy inspired David Bowie to name Ziggy Stardust as he did. (You can find a YouTube video of him explaining it to Jools Holland.) Anyway, before Jams archives itself on September 26th, I wanted to expose my friends and followers to Paralyzed by the Legendary Stardust Cowboy.
