R.I.P David Bowie
« on: January 11, 2016, 08:34:46 AM »
David Bowie died today age 69 after battling cancer.
While I did not know him and his works well, I was impressed by the quality of his singing Comfortably Numb together with David Gilmour on the Remember that Night DVD...

A sad loss of a true talent.  There aren't many artists that have songs that really capture me in any serious way but Bowie had a number of releases that made me put everything down and listen.

I have a few pictures from 6th January 1973 at the Empire Theatre, Edinburgh.

So said. RIP David

You will be missed by me and many Thousands of others.

Losing all these icons from my youth, reminds me how old I really am.

The legends are getting fewer and fewer.

Really liked his and Jagger's "Prancing in the street"... sorry "Dancing..."  ;D

I was quite shocked by the news this morning, as I read recently that he had a new album come out that was well liked.

RIP.
