It's absolute fact! Mine include a Ziggy shirt, an Aladdin Sane shirt and (my favourite) the picture of David as Thomas Jerome Newton from the "Low" album cover ???

This one is for @Bookwomble !😁 and everyone else!
A fascinating look behind the making of one of Bowie's best albums, and one of my all-time favourites. A fusion of innovative, spikey pop-rock on one side, avant garde art-rock on the other, a perfect album cover image of an artist at the top of his game, and on the verge of disintegration. Wicken does a great job of catching the febrile atmosphere of Bowie's creative process.

Extra time off work = extra reading time. I enjoyed this, though Wilcken's overuse of the word "autistic" to describe Bowies's recording process, lyrics, friendships, etc got really frustrating and annoying.
If you love music, then you may enjoy the
33 1/3 series of books based on popular classic albums. Being a huge Bowie fan, I had to dive in. Super quick read and recommended. Quite a few albums to choose from as well!
