Steve Took appeared on four Bowie Songs for the BBC 'Top Gear' John Peel programme.
These have now been released on CD. See image below for more info. Below is the full version of one of these
songs (Karma Man). Junior’s Eyes featured Mick Wayne who, within the space of a few months of late ’72 was in and out of stints with both
Steve Took’s band and the Pink Fairies. Also working on the album were Junior’s Eyes bassist John “Honk” Lodge, fresh from session playing on Twink’s Think Pink LP, as well as classical cellist Paul Buckmaster, (famed for his work on the Beatles’ “Eleanor Rigby”) who would soon play on Mick Farren’s Mona solo LP, most notably on the title track. The back cover of Space Oddity was painted by Bowie’s childhood friend George Underwood who had
previously done the similarly styled sleeve for Tyrannosaurus Rex’s “My People Were Fair…” LP. ![]()
