David Bowie
The following article shows his career in photos.
Seems he's tried to keep quiet about turning 65 today. David Bowie 65th birthday: 65 iconic images of the ever-changing star - mirror.co.uk Never knew that he was originally known as Davy Jones! Happy Birthday "Starman".

Re: David Bowie
Yep knew about it, seen him once as a solo artist in some boozer in London early days, Top Performer had a great career, think packed it in following a heart scare a few years ago,wish him well.

Re: David Bowie
I saw it in the paper this morning, can't say I was a big fan, but some of his stuff was okay

Re: David Bowie
I like Bowie for his originality (surprising that so many 'pop' stars my age were so good!). There have been excellent one later but I feel the whole music scene has declined since the 80s. All a far cry from when we used to listen to 2-way family favourites in the 50s.

Re: David Bowie
I wasn't a big fan of Bowie, but I recognise he had talent...it just didn't float my boat.
It was Dylan for me...Bob Dylan, not the wacky rabiit from the Magic Roundabout.

Re: David Bowie
Punk heralded the death of pop - discuss!!! Ian Dury is one of my faves.

Re: David Bowie
I still think Ziggy Stardust is one of the best albums ever.

Re: David Bowie
Last one I promise - keeping the best till last!
Bowie - Life On Mars Original unbleached - YouTube Fantastic make-up again showing of those weird captivating eyes! Love the whole glam rock thing - love dressing up that's probably why!

Re: David Bowie
Bowie was top boy during most of the 70's and at one time had 5 albums in the top ten at the same time ..very clued up and used the media for his own advantage.
