Happy #RollingThunder kickoff anniversary!

To celebrate, I spoke with the late, great #MickRonson's longtime partner Suzi about the touches of glam the famous #DavidBowie sideman brought to #BobDylan's band, and her own time on the road with the Revue.

Flagging Down the Double E's · Suzi Ronson Remembers Mick Ronson's Role on Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder RevueBy Ray Padgett

#MickRonson – Slaughter on 10th Avenue (1974). Best known for nimble guitar work behind David Bowie and Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson shows a more eclectic side on his debut solo LP. A competent singer with an emotive edge more cabaret than rock and roll, Ronson brings a dramatic flair to covers of “Love Me Tender” and the Richard Rodgers showtune/ title track. “Only After Dark” is the set’s one knees-up rocker – a forerunner to the new wave Ronson helped inspire.

Friday 17 May is another Jukebox Friday Night, but this time the theme is Rainbows for International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.

The first thing that comes to mind for me –

"Colour me and make me feel stronger
Something exotic and new, something that won't fade too soon …"

Mick Ronson, "Colour Me" (1994)

"Walk on the Wild Side" is a song by American #rock musician #LouReed from his second solo studio album, #Transformer (1972). It was produced by #DavidBowie and #MickRonson and released as a #doubleAside with "#PerfectDay". Known as a counterculture anthem, the song received wide radio coverage and became Reed's biggest hit and #signatureSong while touching on topics considered taboo at the time, such as #transgender people, #drugs, #maleProstitution, and #oralSex.

About four hours ago, Tim Jones (@timjonesbooks) put up Mick Ronson and Ian Hunter playing "All the Young Dudes".

I'd like to add a track from Mick Ronson's (1946~1993) solo album, the one on which he escaped the Bowie influence (and the label refused to release it) –

Mick Ronson, "Hard Life" (1976, finally released 1993)

Listen very carefully around the 04:27 mark … oh , the irony!

On this day 30 years ago, the music world lost legendary guitarist and prominent #DavidBowie sidekick #MickRonson.

"Ziggy played guitar
Jamming good with Weird and Gilly
And the Spiders from Mars
He played it left hand
But made it too far
Became the special man
Then we were Ziggy's band"
