David Bowie- Station to Station 45th Anniversary

/in , ,

“The way you change Music is by changing the music,” David Bowie told me, without any hint of irony whatsoever, as we discussed  1976’s Station to Station.

A lot has changed  since April 1983, not the least of which is in the areas of communication, information, and entertainment.

David Bowie- The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust

/in
