Show was primetime on NBC.
I was a huge fan of his Pin Ups album, which had him & Twiggy on the cover.
It was a collection of his takes on a bunch of British Invasion hits.
They played some on that show.
That was his last appearance as Ziggy.
He changed his persona to Aladdin Sane right after that. A couple years later he introduced "The Thin White Duke".
Yeah, I've been a Bowie nut for decades!
