Cheers Stan, takes me back a few years

 

Moonage Daydream is one the great guitar songs of all time.

 

I guess I'm a hardcore fan then, ****ing love Bowie. got all his albums. Even the **** ones from the late 80s and 90s.

Nowt beats Station to Station and Low for me. Ziggy Stardust a close third. Ronson makes that album, Moonage Daydream is absolutely sublime.

He said in an interview recently that there will be more new songs. Hope so, his newest album was very good.

 

The bad 80's records where down to two things.

Industrial amounts of coke and being skint.

The reason Nile Rodgers was involved was because he know's how to make massive mainstream hits.

 

But he was on industrial amounts of coke when he made Station to Station and the Berlin trilogy, and they are amazing albums.

 

And, if I'm right, Nile R was a massive C-head, too.

This is the concert of the legendary 'Thin White Duke' bootleg that was much sought after in 76/77.

A must have.

 

He was. He flat-lined after a coke binge with Mickey Rourke.

I didn't really like the 'Plastic Soul' era or commercial 80's era.

He didn't get the credit for Tin Machine he deserved.
