Bonus Episode: Bowie's Best Friend George Underwood Recalls Their Childhood, Early Bands and That Famous Punch
Manage episode 282670996 series 2858957
Each chapter of 'Off the Record' will be followed by a bonus episode featuring interviews with real life figures from that week's installment. To kick things off, Jordan spoke to George Underwood, the renowned visual artist and David's childhood best friend. David and George were inseparable throughout their youth. These guys went to school together, played their first concerts together, saw Little Richard live and in person together, and chatted up girls together. This last factor would cause a bit a problem, sparking their one and only fight. The teenage tussle resulted in David's distinctive eye injury, but their friendship endured. In fact, David would later thank George for his trademark feature! George got David into his first band, the Konrads, and they also played together in a mid-'60s R&B combo called the King Bees. He later accompanied David on his first American tour and helped designed some of his most iconic album covers. They remained close for the rest of David's life.
