Couldn't let the Lost fest pass without a Bowie number.  So here's Rebel Rebel.

Always liked this song and loved playing that riff.

Three guitars - Harley Benton LP, Squier bass and Ibanez acoustic, as well as GB drums and piano.  The cowbell is from DM-1. That's it I think.  Vocal is recorded through the on-board mic on my phone.

You nailed that riff brother.  And the rest of the tune as well.

 Super fine cover.
Let it be known, there is a fountain, that was not made, by the hands of men.
