David Bowie, icône du monde de la musique, est mort le 10 janvier 2016. A l'occasion de ce triste anniversaire, réécoutez notre épisode qui parle de lui. Reconnaissable entre 1000 grâce à son look androgyne, Bowie fait partie des artistes qui ont marqué la culture pop de manière indiscutable et de plusieurs manières. En 1969, un jeune Britannique se fait connaître grâce au 45 tours « Space Oddity » sorti le 11 juillet, soit dix jours avant le premier pas de l'homme sur la lune. David Bowie s'appelait en réalité David Robert Jones. Ce pseudo vient d'un couteau inventé par un certain Jim Bowie, devenu célèbre grâce à des films comme Rambo et Crocodile Dundee. Une première altération à la réalité suivie de beaucoup d'autres. Comment David Bowie a-t-il marqué la culture pop ? Comment cela s'est-il traduit dans son art ? Comment se terminera sa carrière ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant, vous savez - Culture". Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Jonathan Aupart.

David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016), known professionally as David Bowie (/ˈboʊi/ BOH-ee),[1] was an English singer-songwriter and actor. A leading figure in the music industry, he is regarded as one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Bowie was acclaimed by critics and musicians, particularly for his innovative work during the 1970s. His career was marked by reinvention and visual presentation, and his music and stagecraft had a significant impact on popular music.Bowie developed an interest in music from an early age. He studied art, music and design before embarking on a professional career as a musician in 1963. "Space Oddity", released in 1969, was his first top-five entry on the UK Singles Chart. After a period of experimentation, he re-emerged in 1972 during the glam rock era with his flamboyant and androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust. The character was spearheaded by the success of Bowie's single "Starman" and album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, which won him widespread popularity. In 1975, Bowie's style shifted towards a sound he characterised as "plastic soul", initially alienating many of his UK fans but garnering him his first major US crossover success with the number-one single "Fame" and the album Young Americans. In 1976, Bowie starred in the cult film The Man Who Fell to Earth and released Station to Station. In 1977, he again changed direction with the electronic-inflected album Low, the first of three collaborations with Brian Eno that came to be known as the "Berlin Trilogy". "Heroes" (1977) and Lodger (1979) followed; each album reached the UK top five and received lasting critical praise.After uneven commercial success in the late 1970s, Bowie had three number-one hits: the 1980 single "Ashes to Ashes", its album Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps), and "Under Pressure" (a 1981 collaboration with Queen). He achieved massive commercial success in the 1980s starting with Let's Dance (1983). Between 1988 and 1992, he fronted the hard rock band Tin Machine before resuming his solo career in 1993. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, Bowie continued to experiment with musical styles, including industrial and jungle. He also continued acting; his roles included Major Jack Celliers in Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983), Jareth the Goblin King in Labyrinth (1986), Pontius Pilate in The Last Temptation of Christ (1988), and Nikola Tesla in The Prestige (2006), among other film and television appearances and cameos. He stopped touring after 2004 and his last live performance was at a charity event in 2006. In 2013, Bowie returned from a decade-long recording hiatus with The Next Day. He remained musically active until his death from liver cancer at his home in New York City. He died two days after both his 69th birthday and the release of his final album, Blackstar (2016).During his lifetime, his record sales, estimated at over 100 million records worldwide, made him one of the best-selling musicians of all time. In the UK, he was awarded ten platinum, eleven gold and eight silver album certifications, and released 11 number-one albums. In the US, he received five platinum and nine gold certifications. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996. Rolling Stone ranked him among the greatest artists in history. As of 2022, Bowie was the best-selling vinyl artist of the 21st century.
Il y a un spécialiste des suites parmi nos rockeurs. Un homme qui voyait sa musique comme des films dont on peut écrire une nouvelle partie quand on en ressent le besoin, ressusciter ou tuer des personnages, se lancer à corps perdu dans des récits interminables, des histoires à dormir debout ! Ce spécialiste c'est David Bowie. Après avoir galéré pendant plusieurs années, le jeune David Robert Jones alias David Bowie goûte enfin au succès avec “Space Oddity”. Un titre dans l'air du temps, diffusé pour accompagner les images des premiers pas sur la lune sur la BBC, et qui trouve lui-même son inspiration d'un film culte de Stanley Kubrick : 2001, l'Odyssée de l'Espace. Ce titre fait naître le premier personnage incarné par David Bowie : le Major Tom. Bowie qui va revêtir différents personnages aux débuts de carrière, Major Tom mais aussi Ziggy Stardust ou encore le Thin White Duke. ''Ashes To Ashes'' se veut, d'une certaine façon, une suite et fin de cet épisode, un adieu à Major Tom. 15 ans plus tard, “Hallo Spaceboy” semble faire référence à nouveau à Major Tom, serait-ce la suite des aventures du Major Tom ? En novembre 2015, on découvre la vidéo de “Blackstar”, cet astronaute, le squelette sous son casque, cette fois, Major Tom n'est plus mais même mort, il rôde dans son univers. --- Du lundi au vendredi, Fanny Gillard et Laurent Rieppi vous dévoilent l'univers rock, au travers de thèmes comme ceux de l'éducation, des rockers en prison, les objets de la culture rock, les groupes familiaux et leurs déboires, et bien d'autres, chaque matin dans Coffee on the Rocks à 6h30 et rediffusion à 13h30 dans Lunch Around The Clock.
C'est à une expérience immersive que le réalisateur invite les spectateurs, plus qu'à une biographie d'un génie de la pop, né David Robert Jones en 1947 et mort 69 ans plus tard. Halloween Jack, The Thin White Duke, Aladdin Sane... Au tout début de sa carrière, l'icône pop David Bowie, né David Jones en 1947, collectionne les avatars. Pour reprendre le titre d'un film dans lequel il joua, c'était un homme qui venait d'ailleurs. Son personnage le plus célèbre, Ziggy Stardust, héros d'un album sorti en 1972, n'était-il pas un extraterrestre ? À son image, le documentaire Moonage Daydream, kaléidoscope tourbillonnant d'images et de sons, semble aussi provenir de l'espace. « Disséquer la vie de David Bowie, en interrogeant des spécialistes sur fond noir, cela n'aurait vraiment pas correspondu à l'expérience que je voulais proposer », explique son réalisateur Brett Morgen. Et de fait, Moonage Daydream n'est pas un simple documentaire, c'est une véritable expérience immersive. Sollicité par les héritiers de la star, l'Américan Brett Morgen a réalisé un film ovni, sans commentaires ni témoignages. Mais il a eu accès à un fonds d'archives exceptionnel. Brett Morgen colle ensemble des séquences, pour la plupart largement inédites, et les organise par thèmes plus qu'en suivant un ordre chronologique. « Cela n'aurait pas pu être un film "Bowie par Bowie". J'ai livré ma version de sa musique, qui est pour moi énigmatique, sublime et intime. Je ne crois pas que David Bowie parle de David Jones dans son art. Mais il nous a tous invités à nous connaître mieux. Son espace de création est en fait pour tous les auditeurs et spectateurs un espace de projection », observe Brett Morgen. Si les connaisseurs du génie de la pop apprécieront les archives à leur juste valeur, Moonage Daydream s'adresse aussi à tous les publics. « J'ai pensé à trois types de publics en faisant ce film. Les fans absolus de David Bowie vont se régaler en découvrant des vidéos bonus, des archives totalement inédites, promet le réalisateur. Ensuite, ceux qui connaissent sa musique se plongeront pendant deux heures et demie dans un univers plus complexe, et apprendront, je pense, beaucoup de choses. Et puis ceux qui ne connaissent pas du tout le personnage pourront recevoir ce message universel : c'est important de partir à la recherche de soi-même et de vivre intensément le moment présent. Ce film est une sorte de rappel utile. » Car une ligne directrice émerge de ce millefeuille psychédélique d'expériences artistiques : la philosophie de David Bowie. La star aura mené toute sa vie une quête spirituelle, se réinventant en permanence. ► À écouter aussi, l'épisode de Réservoir rock : «Wild Is The Wind», David Bowie (1976)

Hoy nos adentraremos en la vida de David Robert Jones, más conocido como David Bowie, en honor al cuchillo “Bowie”, que es como si Bisbal se hubiera llamao “David Navaja” El pequeño David nació en Londres el 8 de enero de 1947. Era hijo de un matrimonio de clase media de antes, vamos, que la madre no le decía “pal mes que viene” a una copa Danone. Su padre hacía anuncios de esos de las ONG’s que te dan ganas de apadrinar hasta la tortuga del fondo y su madre era acomodadora de cine, que llamándose Peggy Burns es una lástima que no se dedicara a hacer tartas de arándanos. A los 6 años, David, ya tenía reputación de niño superdotado, rebelde y más bronquista que un personaje de Tarantino. En un acto desesperado de su madre por mantener las manos del niño lejos de los ojos de sus compañeros le compró una flauta. Y allí que iba David por el vecindario tocando el himno de Alegría a la hora de la siesta, que es cuando mejor suena una flauta. Ese mismo año se mudaron de barrio, pa que el niño diera por culo en uno nuevo, y lo cambiaron al colegio “Burnt Ash Junior School” donde se sorprendieron de lo bien que tocaba la flauta el niño. Así que como no cantaba mal del tó, lo metieron en el coro de la escuela. El niño, que era raro de gustarle el pescao en blanco, bailaba así abriendo mucho las piernas como pa saltar un charco y moviendo los brazos en círculos como si estuviera enganchao en el visillo del salón. Sus interpretaciones eran según sus profesores “vistosamente artísticas”. En aquella época los niños bailaban Rock’n’Roll, que era el Fornite de antes y al padre se le ocurrió ponerle la canción de Little Richard, “Tutti Frutti” pa que el niño se integrara un poquito. David dijo que “había escuchado a Dios”. Definitivamente el niño era raro de no saltarse los anuncios de Youtube. A los 10 años empezó a tocar el Ukelele, el bajo Tea-cheast (que es con una sola cuerda) y el piano y hacía, además, actuaciones imitando a Elvis y Chuck Berry para su grupo de boy-scouts mientras sus compañeros metían escarabajos en un tarro vacío de pepinillos, que salía el escarabajo pidiendo sal de frutas y un almax. Con tantas extraescolares, David suspendió el examen de primaria, así que la madre lo cambió a un colegio que era como el de Harry Potter pero sin drogas al alcance de los niños. Allí pudo estudiar arte, música, diseño y composición tipográfica, que es lo de hacer los cartelitos con las letras de Mr. Wonderful. En 1961, su hermanastro le descubrió el jazz moderno y su madre vio el cielo abierto esas navidades. Le regaló un saxofón alto de plástico, que era más barato, por si no le gustaba y se acababa comiendo el saxofón. En 1962 se peleó con un amigo a cuenta de una niña, como si a él le hubieran gustao alguna vez las niñas. Su amigo, que tenía un anillo en el dedo, al darle un puñetazo le dejó la pupila como la tapita de una cañailla. Sí, señores y señoras, David Bowie no tenía un ojo de cada color, lo que tenía era una pupila dilatada como si se hubiera esnifao dos raya de tiza. A los 15 años le regalaron un saxo en condiciones, que parecía Pocoyo con el de plástico, y fundó la banda “Kon-rads”, actuando en verbenas y velaitas. Al año siguiente le dijo a la mare que quería ser una estrella de Pop, pero la madre le dijo que el trabajo estaba mu malo y que por qué no se metía mejó a ayudante de electricista, que en aquella época una bombilla de filamento duraba menos que el cargador de un iPhone. Frustrado por las pocas aspiraciones de los otros componentes de la banda, fundó otra, los “King Bees”. Mira que lo promocionaron de grati, pero su primer sencillo no lo escuchó ni el productor. Así que se cambió de banda otra vez. Y así hasta que se pintó un rayo en la cara y vendió muchos discos. Lo que más le gustaba a Bowie era ser bohemio, la psicodelia, el glam y tó lo que se pudiera volcar encima de un CD. Después se fue a Berlín a desintoxicarse, que es como irse a Jijona a adelgazar. Lamentablemente un bichito en el hígado se lo llevó el 10 de enero de 2016, dos días después de cumplir 69 años, aunque ustedes siempre podrán recordarlo cuando aprovechen un tarro de pepinillos o vean una bombilla de filamentos.

El 18 de noviembre de 1993 la banda de rock alternativo Nirvana liderada por Kurt Cobain grabó en Nueva York un concierto titulado “Nirvana MTV Unplugged” del cual se lanzó el video sencillo “The man who sold the World” (El hombre que vendió el mundo). La canción de Nirvana es una nueva versión de “The man who sold the World” escrita y grabada originalmente por el músico británico David Bovie en 1970. Así la escuché yo… Como dato curioso, hay que decir que el músico chileno Nico Borie, conocido en YouTube por realizar versiones al español de clásicos del Rock, también grabó la canción bajo el título “El hombre que el mundo vendió”.

David Robert Jones, dit David Bowie, nous a quittés le 10 janvier 2016 à New York à l’âge de 69 ans. On pense tout savoir de lui, mais il nous réserve encore de belles surprises car David Bowie avait plus d’un tour dans son sac. En plus d’être un musicien légendaire, il fut un businessman hors norme, un producteur, un acteur au cinéma, au théâtre, un des premiers artistes à communiquer avec ses fans au début d’internet… Bref on ne compte plus les différents talents de Bowie… Et parmi ceux-ci, celui que l’on connaît peut-être moins, c’est celui de peintre. --- Du lundi au vendredi, Fanny Gillard et Laurent Rieppi vous dévoilent une anecdote sur le rock chaque matin dans le Morning Club à 6h30. Rediffusion à 13h30 dans Lunch Around The Clock sur Classic 21, la Radio Rock n' Pop.
David Robert Jones. Major Tom. Rainbowman. Ziggy Stardust. Starman. Aladdin Sane. Halloween Jack. Diamond Dog. Rebel Rebel. The Man Who Fell to Earth. The Man Who Sold The World. Thin White Duke. „Hero“. Pop Star. Absolute Beginner. Nathan Adler. Earthling. Thursday's Child. New Killer Star. Und zuletzt: Lazarus. David Bowie, der einst aus dem Weltall zur Erde kam, hat viele Gestalten angenommen, um uns sein Vermächtnis zu hinterlassen: Pop Musik. Die war wie sein Wesen reich an Facetten und Pailletten: Glam Rock, Singer Songwriter, Hard Rock, Funk und Soul, New Wave und Post Punk, Avantgarde und Alternative, Jungle und Jazz. Immer innovativ, immer auf der Suche nach „Ch-ch-changes“. In Episode #038ZiggyStargast wandern wir 5 Jahre nach seinem Tod auf den Pfaden des Formwandlers von London auf den Mars nach Berlin, New York und ins Schwarze Loch. Anschnallen, Sauerstoffmasken anlegen, Pillen einwerfen, es wird ein einziger Trip. Happy Birthday, David Bowie, Du fehlst!

David Robert Jones (8 January 1947—10 January 2016), known professionally as David Bowie, is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Fueled by a range of musical styles, Bowie often projected a variety of personalities depending on which project he was working on and where his musical interests lay at the moment. From Glam Rock, to Disco and everything in between — he achieved massive success with his art that affected millions of lives with each evolving iteration. Since his death in 2016, Party Favorz has received many requests to create a Legacy set featuring his work. Given the substantial output and variety of his catalog that literally goes back to 1969 — it was near impossible to do any justice to the legacy Bowie has left us — until now. There's no doubt he would have gravitated toward the current electronic movement and even began remixing his work in the early 90s. That being said, with a variety of music styles and the ability to capture the true magic of his work — it is near impossible to recreate. Nevertheless, I persisted and pulled off something special for hardcore fans (such as myself) that at the very least extracts multiple highlights of his career even if it's not all-encompassing. Frankly, a good portion of his catalog would be near impossible to translate to the dance floor. I have to admit, the Julian Marsh remix of "Space Oddity" and 7th Heaven remix of "Rebel Rebel" are spectacularly executed, as well as several others. I cannot deny the emotions that overwhelm me when I listen to his music as it brings back a flood of memories — some good, while others, not so much. It just proves that Bowie's music will stand the test of time. It is with much love and respect that Party Favorz honors David Bowie with his own tribute to dance music. Some may consider this tribute blasphemy but there's no doubt this would have been his next act. RIP Ziggy.

Some may consider this tribute blasphemy but there's no doubt this would have been his next act. RIP Ziggy.

David Bowie, Musician And Trendsetter There is no doubt that among the history books holding the names of rock legends, the name of David Bowie is up there with the best of them. A man who doesn't just play the game by his own rules, but created the game itself and then ripped up the rules too. He took on the prescribed format of musical output in the early seventies and almost single handedly changed it forever. In this Bowie inspired Join Up Dots biography we take a look at how this unassuming man, born David Robert Jones in Brixton, South London on January 8th 1947, could at first struggle so badly to ignite the flame of success. Mimicking the stars of the day, and stars of yesterday, unable to find his real voice, until stumbling on the very thing that would make him who he is today And that thing was changes, the ability to reinvent himself, and freshen his sound, image and outlook at will, keeping all of us guessing as to his next move for the next forty years. David's start in life was about as normal as a child growing up in the United Kingdom in the 50's could have expected to live. His mother, Margaret Mary worked as a waitress, while his father, Haywood Stenton Jones, from Yorkshire, was a promotions officer for Barnardo's a children charity. Bowie attended Stockwell Infants School until he was six years old, where teachers considered him as a gifted and single-minded child, although not with obvious musical genius, and a singing voice only classed as adequate. When David Bowie was a small child he was fascinated by music, and loved nothing more than tuning into the radio stations of the day to hear the scratchy sounds from some distant DJ in a basement far far away like so many other children. But it was when he was thirteen, and encouraged by his older brother Terry, he picked up a saxophone and started making his own sounds that things started becoming more than a hobby. Terry was nine years older, and inspired and influenced the young David greatly, as most older brothers do, exposing him to literature, rock music and the kind of influences that a thirteen year old child growing up in South London would have been unlikely to discover on their own. David at first tried to teach himself the saxophone, but struggled with it, so made the bold decision to phone the top British saxophonist Ronnie Ross, who he had seen play in the West End of London, and asked for lessons. Ronnie charged David £2.00 per lesson, which was more than this soon to be wealthy practicing rock star could hope to afford. But this wouldn't deter, young Davy Jones, and he got himself a job as a butcher's delivery boy to ensure that he had the cash to allow the fortnightly lessons to occur. Unfortunately, although a major part of setting the fledgling rock star on his way to super stardom, with his encouragement and support, David's brother Terry was not to be in his day to day life for long. Suffering with his own personal demons, the family had Terry committed to an institution fearing for his safety. This no doubt had a huge impact on the young David Bowie, and although good in its intention haunted David for a good deal of his life, even becoming the topic of his song “Jump They Say” after Terry's suicide many years later. At the age of sixteen, David Bowie graduated from the technical high school he had attended in Bromley, only memorable for a fight he had with a school friend that left him with eyes different in colour to one another, and got his first job a commercial artist. He joined as a Junior Visualiser /Paste up Artist for the Yorkshire based company Neven D Hirst. This is a fascinating move for David to make, as although he was still playing for bands, and striving to break into music business in the evening, he still followed the path that most of us follow. He left school and set about getting a job. Is there anyway that we can break from the path that has been trod for generations before us? Even if we have greatness desperate to burst out from inside us?. Probably not, but as we see time and time again on Join Up Dots, the ability to keep on pushing against the rules of conformity is what allows the great to become great. Stopping ourselves from following the crowd, that leave school and enter the offices of the world just because they haven't stopped to question why? Well David, did just that and after only five months, knew in his heart of hearts that he had to take control of his life, if his dreams of working as a musician were to come true. The bands he had performed with every night had cemented the belief that he had what it took, not necessarily to achieve the dizzying heights that he later achieved, but at least earning money doing what he loved. Interestingly, crossing his path in these early days was another musician who would also go on to place his name indelibly in the record books, one Jimmy Page the guitarist of David Bowie's band the Manish Boys. Jimmy Paige of course become a global success with one of the most famous rock bands of all time Led Zeppelin. Several singles were recorded and released during this period, but none could have been classed as anything but a learning curve. Allowing the young Bowie to experience a recording studio for the first time and hear his own voice played back to him. Other than working with Jimmy Paige, the only dot on the Join Up Dots timelines that helps us to see the man that he later became, was when when he made the decision to change his name from Davy Jones, and replace his surname with the now recognizable Bowie, after the knife. Davy Jones from the Monkees was riding the crest of the wave, with hits such as “Last Train To Clarksville”, and “Daydream Believer”, and David felt that this could be confusing to the record buying public, and ultimately could hold him back. Did this make a huge difference, who can tell, but it was better than one of his other choices he made: Tom Jones. It was certainly the first indication of the chameleon like character that has since gone on to characterize so much of his later work. After recording, and performing with the bands, Bowie made the decision to go solo, and pursue a career on his own terms. He recorded his first solo album, which sunk without trace. This was a crushing blow for David Bowie, and instead of working harder on the content he was intent to keep delivering to the world, the musician did something quite unexpected…but quite David Bowie like. He decided to take a break from the music world, and headed to Scotland where for a period in 1967 he lived in a Buddhist monastery along with American musician Leonard Cohen. As he says “”I was a terribly earnest Buddhist at the time I had stayed in their monastery and was going through all their exams, and yet I had this feeling that it wasn't right for me. I suddenly realised how close it all was: another month and my head would have been shaved.” So David left, and then even more bizarrely joined a group of mime artists, even starting his own group called Feathers. Although this from the outside seems unusual, as we see on Join Up Dots everyday, a person has to try things that may not seem part of the master plan, to ultimately lead them to where they should be in life. It is during these times, when it may seem haphazard and wasteful that most people absorb different ways of operating. Discovering skills within themselves, that they can utilise later in positions not remotely visible at that time. And that is the case with David Bowie, as the added spirituality and theatricality become more evident in his work, as was displayed in his own classic song “Space Oddity” about a spaceman floating around about the earth. Thanks to the BBC's use of the song for their coverage of the US Moon landing in 1969, David Bowie had his first hit record. With the song hitting the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. What is extremely interesting is the state of mind of David Bowie at the time of writing. The words clearly show an individual lost, and forlorn about the future. No surprise after the failures of his previous musical efforts. “Planet earth is blue and there's nothing I can do” – shows the realization that there's nothing he can do about all of the problems he sees in the world. “Can you hear me Major Tom? Can you hear me Major Tom? – He's lost communication with those on the ground (i.e. in reality). David Bowie showed a window to his soul. He was not part of his previous life of domesticity in Bromley, and was neither part of the rock star lifestyle that he so craved. Bowie was floating out in Space, on his own. Slowly getting ready for the true moment that David Bowie blasted into our consciousness, and the televisions and radios across the world. In 1973, the career that had stuttered and faltered for the last four years, exploded dramatically into life, as from that position floating above the world David returned to earth. This time not as himself, but the androgynous alien Ziggy Stardust. It signaled the start of the David Bowie fascination. Where was the man, and where was the music? Could one exist without the other? Was the high camp fashion that he displayed on stage the true mark of David Bowie, or a curtain to hide behind, whilst the crowds surged, screamed and fainted in front him. This was glam-rock at its peak, and quite literally anyone around at that time would be compared to the strutting, preening and bi-sexual pre-madonna that was 1973's incarnation of David Bowie. Even megastars such as T-Rex's Marc Bolan, the flamboyant pianist from Middlesex Elton John, and the upwardly climbing Freddie Mercury were nothing, compared to what the world was witnessing with his classic “Starman” and “Ziggy Stardust” David Bowie was no longer floating high above the world on his own. To the teenagers and music buying public, he was the world, and with his backing band The Spiders Of Mars, the world waited with baited breath to see what they would deliver next. And David Bowie delivered…but once again not in the way most expected, or wished for. Instead of setting off on a world-tour, and crushing the charts with new albums and singles, he announced that he was retiring from touring and that Ziggy Stardust and of course the Spiders were no more. As he announced whilst on stage “Of all the shows on the tour, this one will stay with us the longest because not only is this the last show of the tour, but it is the last show we will ever do.” This surprised everyone in the house – not least the members of his band. The hysteria was over almost as soon as it had started. Which looking back, was an amazingly brave decision to make, but one that showed that David Bowie was in control, and knew what was right for his career. Instead of saying “this is what you want, so this is what you'll get”, he quite firmly, and with huge confidence stated “You will get what I want, and when I want to give it to you!” This in no short measure ensured that the mystic that has grown up around David Bowie was started off in the perfect manner. He was not going to give an inch. And we are no doubt glad that he took that stance, as his music was becoming more creative and experimental because of it. He had created the freedom to explore what he was capable off. And so began his personal odyssey from country to country, city to city, playing and recording with such eclectic names as John Lennon, Brian Eno from Roxy Music and even Luther Vandross, It was whilst in New York jamming with John Lennon that the riff which became the iconic Fame was first heard, and led to David Bowie's first American number one. And his later move to Berlin in Germany, harnessed even greater creative imagery and unexpected musical releases with the classic stripped back “Low” and the Eno produced “Heroes”, made whilst he lived in semi seclusion, painting, studying art and recording with Brian Eno. “Heroes” was marketed by RCA with the catchphrase, “There's Old Wave. There's New Wave. And there's David Bowie…” which is very apt, and something that Bowie would have done well to remember in later years. It is true that Bowie likes nothing more than going in quite different directions than what the world expects. Throughout his career he has explored the world of acting from his early roles in “The Man Who Fell To Earth”, through to “Absolute Beginners And “Labyrinth” where he acted beside a series of Jim “The Muppet” Henson's creations, and even a three month run in the Elephant Man on Broadway. None of the roles or performances would be classed as landmarks in his career. In fact many would argue they were just a distraction to where he should have been placing his attention. On his music. The creativity being focused on areas of interest to David, more to his loyal followers. What becomes a truth with David Bowie, is when he appears to move towards the obvious routes to success, he becomes a pale inferior version of himself. Following the global success of the Nile Rodgers produced album “Lets Dance” in 1983, he appeared influenced by the Music of the time. And one thing for sure being in Duran Duran is never going to inspire the same level of performance as working the bars, and studying the architecture in Berlin or other such locations. David Bowie needs to be off the radar, to be truly authentic. He needs to be tapping into the yet to be seen musical movements, instead of being the leader of the popular and current ones. And so for the next few years David Bowie produced work that was neither memorable nor commercially successful in the same way as his earlier successes. He was falling further behind the crowd, and lost between the teenagers now grown up who adored him in the seventies, and the 80's versions focused on Wham, Duran, and Rick Astley. Throughout the next ten years, Bowie's musical career was in decline, with the albums Tin machine and Tin Machine II being commercial and public failures. David Bowie was finished. He had achieved everything that the 13 year old saxophone learning kid could have ever dreamed off and more. He had inspired the world to believe. He had created a new generation of musicians who studied his back catalogue with a religious fervor. He disappeared. Retreating from the limelight, he closed the door on his New York apartment and became David Jones again. Father, husband, music legend, and enjoying retirement. For over ten years, other than a few sightings David Bowie was invisible to the world. We had the memories of past glories and nothing else. But as we have seen throughout the years, Bowie returns stronger when on his own terms. When he is in control to what the world will receive. That is when he delivers, and in 2013 after ten years in the wilderness “The Next Day” David Bowie's 24th album shook the world. The Spaceman, the Clown, The Alien, The Smooth Groover, the enigma that is David Bowie was back where he belongs. In the ears, and stereos of the world. Saying things the way that only David Bowie can. A musician, a mystery, a creative, a leader, a decision maker, a controller, David Bowie has learnt through all the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs what leads to success. And that quite simply is being himself. A lesson that for so many of us is the hardest one to learn.
There is no doubt that among the history books holding the names of rock legends, the name of David Bowie is up there with the best of them. A man who doesn't just play the game by his own rules, but created the game itself and then ripped up the rules too.

Following the global success of the Nile Rodgers produced album “Lets Dance” in 1983, he appeared influenced by the Music of the time. And one thing for sure being in Duran Duran is never going to inspire the same level of performance as working the bars, and studying the architecture in Berlin or other such locations. David Bowie needs to be off the radar, to be truly authentic. He needs to be tapping into the yet to be seen musical movements, instead of being the leader of the popular and current ones. And so for the next few years David Bowie produced work that was neither memorable nor commercially successful in the same way as his earlier successes. He was falling further behind the crowd, and lost between the teenagers now grown up who adored him in the seventies, and the 80's versions focused on Wham, Duran, and Rick Astley. Throughout the next ten years, Bowie's musical career was in decline, with the albums Tin machine and Tin Machine II being commercial and public failures. David Bowie was finished. He had achieved everything that the 13 year old saxophone learning kid could have ever dreamed off and more. He had inspired the world to believe. He had created a new generation of musicians who studied his back catalogue with a religious fervor. He disappeared. Retreating from the limelight, he closed the door on his New York apartment and became David Jones again. Father, husband, music legend, and enjoying retirement. For over ten years, other than a few sightings David Bowie was invisible to the world. We had the memories of past glories and nothing else. But as we have seen throughout the years, Bowie returns stronger when on his own terms. When he is in control to what the world will receive. That is when he delivers, and in 2013 after ten years in the wilderness “The Next Day” David Bowie's 24th album shook the world. The Spaceman, the Clown, The Alien, The Smooth Groover, the enigma that is David Bowie was back where he belongs. In the ears, and stereos of the world. Saying things the way that only David Bowie can. A musician, a mystery, a creative, a leader, a decision maker, a controller, David Bowie has learnt through all the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs what leads to success. And that quite simply is being himself. A lesson that for so many of us is the hardest one to learn.

Hey ATA Listeners, get ready to enter the world of espionage as this week's Castle having our favorite mystery writer go all Secret Agent Man while teaming up with his ex CIA girlfriend inspired us to give you a spy themed podcast. And through connecting the dots with all of this week's airings of our favorite shows we realized that they each contained an aspect of a secret agent's life with Once upon a Time's Mayor reminding us that behind a pretty face can lie an evil mind and Alcatraz telling us that with a mad bomber around every move you make, another chance you take because odds are with the CIA using drug dealers to finance the war on terror, Person of Interest's Reese may not see tomorrow. Yes, I think you know what classic television theme I'm going for but how I'm going to fit Big Bang Theory and Modern Family into it, is beyond me unless a very ugly painting or a drunken Claire wanting to have Cam and Mitchell's baby has something to do with a mad man's evil plot to rule the world like David Robert Jones kidnapping Olivia out of a gas station bathroom on this week's Fringe. However, on Supernatural that pesky Satan inside of Sam's head seems to be up to something dastardly, which inspired an e-mail from ATA's own international man of mystery Michael J. Petty about the future and possible Series Finale for the show. So now that you have your objectives, your mission if you choose to accept it, is to listen to this podcast before it self-destructs in 5 seconds (just kidding), but remember to do it at your own risk because if you or any of your team members are captured or killed, the government will disavow all knowledge of your actions.
