Quote from: undefinedThe newly unearthed recordings can also be streamed online, and they showcase Bowie versions of Bob Dylan's "Tryin' To Get To Heaven" and John Lennon's "Mother" (the latter was a part of an entire tribute LP to the Beatle, which was later scrapped).

Both recordings date back to 1998 but never seemed to reach the light of day, until now.

Of course Reeves was involved with those recordings:

QuoteReeves Gabrels, who played lead guitar for the Thin White Duke from 1987 to 1999, and is an active member of The Cure, actually lives in Troy and gets custom work done at Collar City Guitars.

Fisher says this isn't the first job he's done for Gabrels. In fact, he's built the guitarist a handful of guitars that he's ended up playing onstage with recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees The Cure.
