Bowie is the strangest performer; so aloof, then he opens his mouth and it all changes...somehow that dichotomy also translates in his recordings...strange but brilliant and only he can pull it off...

And I love Belew's playing, one of the most inventive guitarrist ever!

I'm thinking that's Carlos Alomar on Alembic guitar.  And there's a nice picture of his guitar here (http://scoop.diamondgalleries.com/public/news_images/4/54065_122406_2.jpg).
