Classic Tracks - David Bowie: All the songs, all the stories 1970-1980 by Chris Welch

Chameleon, entertainer, actor, and iconoclast. It would be difficult to think of a rock star who had a more varied and influential career than David Bowie and the list of bands and musicians who have been influenced by Bowie reads like an A to Z of popular music. But Bowie himself skilfully and consistently maintained his credibility as the most innovative performer of his generation by staying one jump ahead of the many who sought to imitate him. Classic Tracks - David Bowie explores this icon in detail.

While his many artistic incarnations are known, few knew David Bowie the man, and as this book will show, through its exploration of his diverse body of work, the only real constant factors in his career was his incredible voice, his imagination and his supreme talent for artistic reincarnation. Every track of each of his albums is examined in great detail, giving you an insight to both the music, and the enigmatic man who created it.
