What an incredible man. I don't want to say legend, as that is used far too easily and often.
David Jones (Bowie) was inspirational, unique, stylish and extremely talented.
Fortunately I saw him live in Melbourne during his 2004 tour. Here for anyone that was a fan is his earlier Melbourne show Spider Tour (get it quick before they remove it)...



RIP

my big sister is living in hope that that he'll arise on the fourth day

My favorite album of his "Station to Station", here's one of the best songs from that album.


Haven't heard anything I like from the "Dark Star" album, including the song "Lazarus", but I've always been a fan.

Let's get this bizarre party started.

As with all true art, it doesn't appeal to every taste or pander to the masses, but makes people think and generates discussion. I didn't like it at first, but is growing on me.
Listened to all of his albums these last few days, first time in a while and I had forgotten how much I love his work.
A truly unique character and the world will not see his like for a long time, if ever.
To many processed and homogenised 'musicians' being manufactured by production companies who would never risk their profit margins on someone that rare and brilliant. He had, I'm sure, more to share. He ran out of time but we were lucky to have had him amongst us for a while.
So long David Bowie,
Ashes to ashes ... funk to funky.

no one wore a suit or dress as cool as David Bowie.

Somebody had too much to drink.

And now Glenn Frey died, as Sheryl Crow tweeted:

— Sheryl Crow (@SherylCrow) January 18, 2016 R.I.P. Glen Frey....Thank you for all the great songs and powerful lyrics...Jesus can the reaper please take break for awhile..........

To which I say: No kidding.

And don't forget Blowfly, who sadly passed away yesterday - the godfather of Hip Hop.
