“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.”

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.

This is so bad that it's good. Bowie was so inspired, this is where he got the name "Ziggy Stardust" from.   3
