David Bowie returned to London from Amsterdam on 15 February 1974.
He was accompanied on the busy three-day trip by his wife Angela and son Zowie, plus an entourage consisting of Tony and Mary Visconti, their baby Delaney, Bowie’s costume designer Freddie Burretti, chauffeur Jimmy Jones, and DJ Barry Bethell.
While in the Netherlands Bowie attended the Edison Awards ceremony, promoted the ‘Rebel Rebel’ single on Dutch television, and finished mixing the Diamond Dogs album.
