RIP to one of the most innovative and creative rock artists in history

One of my favorites from the Ziggy days, still great almost a quarter of century later

 
 
Huge fan in the day.

 
Some of it was Dire, too. He'd never sing this live!

 


This one, from his first album, hints at a ton of the stuff he did on the next two albums.
 


My all "time" favorite.

an artist whose catalog spans six decades. amazing to the end
 
I was never much of a Bowie fan, but this whole album is simply godly.

 
This is still my favorite, and sounds great when you sing along in the shower.China girl isn't too bad either.

 
David with Local guy (Ludlow Ky) (and producer of the Sound and Vision Tour) Adrian Belew

Bowie always was happy to share the spotlight with other talents


 
Not a Bowie song parse but when of my favorite Bowie Collabs.

Definitely one of the best albums ever.

There were "instructions" on the back cover that said something to the effect of "Intended to be played at maximum volume". To this day I usually turn up the music when I hear one of the songs.:lol:
 
not following thread protocol, but an interesting read from Eno

genius gets thrown around a lot in the arts-especially music and Bowie transcended that term because he was so much more than a musical genius. My favorite rocker-Jerry Garcia was a musical genius and a genuinely nice guy but his genius was pretty much limited to music though his art ties are pretty neat. Bowie was an entertainment genius who had incredible talent in several mediums.

Thanks and I appreciate your input. I think Garcia is an ignorant worthless idiot in terms of music... he can't play a correct scale if his life dependent on it... but it's OK, people like what they like... in terms of David Bowie.. the guy is both a singer and performance genius!

well lots of talent-be it Dylan, Gregg Allman, Warren Hayes, Dickie Betts, Dave Grisman and others were very very positive on Garcia. He worked well with everyone and could play bluegrass with the best of them and hard rock with just about anyone. I never heard anyone who was around him say anything bad about the guy, his talent or his skills

but He was more limited in his genius than Bowie

another one of my favorites from DB
