What is Nazz?
1.
as used by David Bowie on Ziggy Stardust, nazz means the hippest, most magnetic of beings. He clearly lifted this term (and many other phrases) from the 50's--60's beat poetry of Richard "Lord" Buckley whose poem The Nazz is a jive iteration about Jesus of Nazareth.
Buckley says in his poem, "Now, The Nazz was the kind of a cat that come on so cool
and so grooovey and so with-it..."
