This was a find and then some:
old BBC footage of a seventeen-year-old David Bowie and his friends
declaring their solidarity as long-haired men in Britain who will not
stand for any more persecution and ridicule.
We're one big gathering of long-haired males (and female) in my house, so we heartily and retroactively endorse the work of this David Bowie person and hope that we'll be hearing more from the bright young man in the years to follow 1964.
(The clip has a Python-esque absurdist feel to it, no?)
