1st wifey and I saw Serious Moonlight tour in Austin, TX... memories for sure. '80 or '81? Although I thought him odd... his music was strangely appealing at times. Much like Johnny Cash, he seems to have recorded a farewell song.. they both knew... RIP Ziggy Stardust.
I wouldn't say he was one of my favorites but his music was an integral part of my teenage years. My best friend had the album "Diamond Dogs" and we listened to "Rebel Rebel" over and over, "A Space Oddity" (the song) was my favorite by Bowie until the release of "Fame" in 1975 on the "Young Americans" album, ... I was 15
Check out his last music videos. Wow, very surreal, dreamlike, nightmare like. Its different, but its still Bowie, to the very end. Click the link, read the story, turn up the speakers, watch,....and trip. http://zap2it.com/2016/01/david-bowie-planned-final-gift-blackstar-released-goodbye/
