ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS
Worked on this great musical film with many great actors and singers including David Bowie RIP.
I was part of Flikker's Teddy boy gang! Also danced in the scene with David Bowie on the giant Record player. The song was 'That's Motivation' was sung by Mr Bowie. The other scenes I was involved in were, smashing a sweetshop widow and being confronted by the wonderful Irene Handl RIP as Mrs Larkin and in the scenes with Steven Berkoff as 'The Fanatic' in the ultra-right meeting.
I met David Bowie and had several chats on ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS !
I met Angie Bowie in 1985 at The Fulham Boulevard which I managed and was the host too. Angie came in most nights and got very drunk. I mentioned that i knew the Who management / Track records which she has a contact with. ( I saw her 45 rpm's on the shelf) We talked about David Bowie. She was a really hard women and very her personality was heavy! LOL!
Great to meet Tony Visconti and Woody Woodmansey in 2018 in Beckenham at a Bowie Event.
I am blessed !
