Re: David Bowie - RIP
First band I ever saw live was the Riot Squad including David Bowie before I even knew who he was.
Saw him several times in the next few years & have always followed his career.
A huge loss to the music world but his influence will still continue.

Re: David Bowie - RIP
Big influence in my school years... A leaping around to Jean Genie, etc. I was there when he made a surprise appearance at a Mott the Hoople gig in Guildford, to sing the harmony on "All the young dudes" - he was Mott's manager at the time. Loved his never-ending ability to reinvent. A very sad loss, indeed.

Re: David Bowie - RIP
Goodnes me, Bowie's Wikepedia page is an extraodinary read, what a life ! One of my earliest musical memories is Laughing Gnome, I remember it being played on the gramaphone in the parlour one evening last centuary. It was the evening I realised that girls were actually quite nice looking things. I think it became a bit of a thorn in Bowies side, audiences shouted for him to play it when he toured as the Thin White Duke and probably plenty of other times too.
Aladdin Sane, so that was 1973. I remember the big boys wearing white makeup with lightning flashes, flappy white flares, platform shoes and ginger hair and that was in Yorkshire. A year later I was getting told off for having the same haircut (darned if I can remember what you asked for at the barbers now) and life had changed forever.
Seems like 5 minutes ago.
God rest ye David Bowie.

Re: David Bowie - RIP
Really worth listening to Blackstar which was released on Friday. A dark album which makes complete sense but a great listen

Re: David Bowie - RIP
Very sad news. Aladdin Sane - first album that I ever bought. I'd recently been thinking that I need to replace some of my old Bowie albums on cd - now I'd better do it.
