DAVID BOWIE A MUSICAL JOURNEY: A Tribute

0/5 ( ratings)

The word ‘genius’ was appropriate

For over 50 years David Bowie cast a body of work like no other. Using music as his prime medium, he innovated and inspired cultural changes within the industry, integrating fashion, art and later, video, to shape vast technicolour other-worlds.
His 2016 album Blackstar, released days before his death, was a parting gift to his many fans, the video to his final single Lazarus showing him with eyes wrapped in bandages, as he tells the audience that he is in Heaven. It was immaculately timed and deeply shocking. This wasn’t the idealism of John Lennon’s Imagine, this was the stark reality of so many peoples’ lives. No one quite died like David Bowie.
This book, written by former music journalist and lifelong Bowie fan Craig Cabell, explores the music that became the soundtrack to so many peoples’ lives. Songs such as Space Oddity, Life On Mars?, “Heroes” and Lazarus, are all discussed, as Cabell explores the musical journey of David Bowie.
