  • Mick 'Woody' Woodmansey (born c. 1951) is an English rock drummer from Driffield, Yorkshire, best known for his work with David Bowie and the Spiders from Mars. He played on Bowie's albums The Man Who Sold the World (1970), Hunky Dory (1971), The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972) and Aladdin Sane (1973). Woodmansey was replaced in The Spiders from Mars by Aynsley Dunbar, who played on Bowie's next album, the 1973 covers album Pin Ups. Woodmansey re-formed The Spiders from Mars for one album, along with bass player Trevor Bolder. This necessitated a change of personnel, with Dave Black on lead guitar due to the fact that Mick Ronson was unavailable and Pete McDonald supplying lead vocals. Guest keyboardist was Mike Garson, who had been a major part of Bowie's line-up from the Ziggy Stardust days. Bowie payed no contribution to the album which was named The Spiders From Mars. After the final disbandment of the Spiders, he formed his own band, Woodmanseys U Boat, releasing a debut album U Boat in 1977. The album was subsequently re-released in 2006 as Woody Woodmansey's U-Boat.. Woodmansey has also played with Art Garfunkel. He played in the band Cybernauts, and currently features as drummer with 3-D.
  • Ha suonato negli album di Bowie The Man Who Sold the World del 1970, Hunky Dory del 1971, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars del 1972 e Aladdin Sane del 1973. Nel 1973, due anni dopo che Bowie aveva "mandato in pensione" lo Ziggy Stardust e si era separato dagli Spiders from Mars, Woodmansey, assieme al bassista Trevor Bolder, ricostituì nuovamente il gruppo per pubblicare un album. Questo rese necessario il rinnovamento della formazione, con Dave Black alla chitarra solista e Pete McDonald nel ruolo di cantante. Ospite, in qualità di tastierista, era quel Mike Garson che era stato una componente notevole della formazione di Bowie fin dai tempi dello Ziggy Stardust. Dopo che gli Spiders si furono definitivamente sciolti Mick formò una propria band, i Woodmanseys U Boat, che nel 1977 pubblicarono il proprio album di esordio, U Boat. L'album fu in seguito (2006) messo nuovamente in commercio col titolo Woody Woodmansey's U Boat. Woodmansey ha suonato anche con Art Garfunkel e nel gruppo Cybernauts; attualmente si esibisce come batterista del gruppo Sueshe.
