Long before the Autoblow Blast, the world’s first automatic and electric blowjob machine, there was the now infamous David Bowie ‘Electric Blowjob’ staged at Oxford Town Hall on June 17^th 1972.

There was a tense feeling of rebellion in the air as Bowie – then riding high with his Ziggy Stardust persona and very fame hungry  – took to the stage. At some point during the concert, Bowie walked to the front of the stage and then to the back where the late Mick Ronson was strutting his funky stuff on lead guitar. Suddenly David swooped to crotch level, gripped Ronno round the hips,  and in full view of the entire audience, proceeded to mimic giving Ronno’s guitar at crotch level a good oral seeing to.

Now Ronson, at the time a strict Mormon, and a Yorkshireman to boot, had no choice but to play along, but he was seething, especially as he could see photographers snapping away and immortalizing the humiliating moment. Come a break in the show, Ronno stormed off the stage and wouldn’t you would have liked to have been a fly on the dressing room wall as Ronno handed Bowie an altogether different kind of tongue lashing.

It was a one off, perhaps even considered tame by today’s standards, but at the time it caused outrage and furore, gasps in The Times, grumbles and groans in the Telegraph, and of course lots more controversial coverage for David Bowie.

Today you don’t have to go to such crazy lengths to get yourself a superb electric blowjob. Just go online and order the Autoblow Blast and it will be delivered direct to your door in plain packaging without a single (or for that matter, married) press photographer in sight.
