Wall To Wall Bowie

by Janette Mason

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Wall to Wall Bowie is a 5 track studio recorded EP celebrating of the music of one of the greatest pop icons featuring David McAlmont and Sam Obernik.

    Creator and arranger Janette Mason presents a fresh look at Bowie’s songs, with new arrangements and jazz twists. She has earned a fantastic reputation for her sell out shows and acquired a loyal fan base along the way.

    Janette Mason (Arranger/Producer/Keyboardist)

    Janette Mason, whose credits include Oasis, Seal, k.d.Lang, Robert Wyatt is a life-long Bowie fan. She sneaked in to see ‘The Man Who Fell Earth’ at the tender age of 13 and had the single ‘ Sound and Vision’ on permanent play on her Philips portable turntable. Smash cut forward to 2012. At this point she had taken on the role of Musical Director at London’s Hideaway Club and had free reign to unleash her creative spirit.

    A chance meeting with celebrated vocalist David McAlmont solidified the project and the current incarnation of Wall To Wall Bowie was born. They have gone on to have a fantastic working relationship, a real meeting of musical minds. David introduced Janette to the sublime Sam Obernik who lends her siren-like vocals to the classic Bowie cover Wild Is The Wind.
    Life really came full circle for Janette in 2020 when she joined Bowie producer Tony Visconti and ex-Spiders drummer Woody Woodmansey super group, Holy Holy.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Wall To Wall Bowie via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Verse Small Jean Genie snuck off to the city Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters Talking ‘bout Monroe and walking on Snow White New York's a go-go and everything tastes nice Poor little Greenie Chorus Jean Genie - lives on his back Jean Genie - loves chimney stacks Jean Genie - He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls Jean Genie - let yourself go! woah Verse Sits like a man but he smiles like a reptile She love him, she love him but just for a short while She'll scratch in the sand, won't let go of his hand He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear Poor little Greenie Chorus Jean Genie - lives on his back Jean Genie - loves chimney stacks Jean Genie - He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls Jean Genie - let yourself go! woah Verse He's so simple minded he can't drive his module He bites on the neon and sleeps in the capsule Loves to be loved, loves to be loved Chorus Jean Genie - lives on his back Jean Genie - loves chimney stacks Jean Genie - He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls Jean Genie - let yourself go! woah

STARMAN Didn't know what time it was The lights were low I leaned back on my radio Some cat was layin' down Some rock 'n' roll 'Lotta soul', he said Then the loud sound did seem to fade Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it 'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie I had to phone someone so I picked on you Hey, that's far out so you heard him too? Switch on the TV, we may pick him up on channel two Look out your window I can see his light If we can sparkle he may land tonight Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up In fright There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it 'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie Starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it 'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie
