Collectively, they're here to remind us, the audience of our mere mortal nature. For even at this early stage in Bowie's career the repertoire reeked of rock god. Bowie rearranges many of the tracks on David Live from the recorded works, almost obsessively. Sheer originality? Yes, of course, but may just upset the odd purist.
