Happy Birthday David Bowie!
by manz
Today marks the birthday of the man, the myth, the legend: David Bowie. What else can I say? Currently sitting unread on my coffee table at home is the 2014 bio on him: Bowie the Biography by Wendy Leigh. Have you read it? Do I need to read it? Please let me know.
As a singer, songwriter and actor Bowie has created many a masterpiece. Everything from ">movies, to music, to books. Ziggy Stardust! Aladdin Sane! The Labyrinth! With many personas spanning across decades Bowie has not ceased to amaze and entertain.
My random Bowie recommendation is not Bowie really, but covers. Check out The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions, featuring Bowie reworked into mellow accoustic versions and sung in Portuguese by Seu Jorge.
Happy birthday, dear sir, and thank you!

Yes Bowie! Read and listen to
Yes Bowie! Read and listen to as much as you can by Bowie! Rarely does he disappoint. I saw him on his Glass Spider Tour. He's brilliant and quite a life-long influence. I think he reminds all of us: DO NOT be afraid for your creativity and be very aware of Creepy Monsters and Super Creeps...oh and an invite to all: "Let's Dance" to "China Girl" and "Blue Jean" in the "Golden Years."
