    David Bowie and Luther Vandross Together

    *****


    One of the "young Americans" to catch the fancy of US visiting David Bowie during the early days of disco was a young Luther Vandross who sang vocals on the YOUNG AMERICANS album .



    The two got to know each other well enough to the degree that they wrote a song together called FASCINATION which appears on that same LP .



    Here are some sentiments found within the lyrics from this duo's pairing :

    Like when I'm walking
    Seems that everywhere I turn
    I hope you're waiting for me
    I know that people think
    That I'm a little crazy
    Ohh, better sex is fun
    I think I like fascination

    Baby, take me
    high upon a hillside

    high up where the stallion
    meets the sun

    "Young Americans" is one of my favourite albums. It was the first time i ever heard Luther.A couple of years later a good version of "Fascination" came out on Cotillion by Fat Larrys Band.

    I've just remembered that Fat Larrys version of "Fascination" was on WMOT. The first single of that lp "Center City" was a big local favourite.
