David Bowie -&The story of Ziggy Stardust.(BBC4 Documentary - Full 60 minutes

im sure this has been on before but i caught it on bbc4 last nite just brilliant

[Wes]

Brilliant stuff Vic... I must say I much prefer Aladdin Sane as Bowie records go. I really need to get the Ziggy Stardust Motion Picture concert on DVD, I catch it everytime it's on Arts and it is of couse essential Bowie. I often wonder did Throbbing Gristle (my other long-standing obsession in life) steal the flash of electricity symbol seen from those Ziggy gigs...

its a tough call,id be hard pressed to choose a fav from that period although Hunky Dory is up there for me,or was it Aladdin Sane or maybe Diamond Dogs..........I can't do it,ill just have to make sure im never on that desert island people keep bangin on about.

Yeah Diamond Dogs was a game changer, I listened to the album just last week and there really is nothing like it, Bowie was truly a maverick. We Are The Dead and Big Brother are two of David's greatest, if overlooked songs... Vic have you seen Cracked Actor ? Extraordinary film. It has a certain reputation for showing Bowie in a fairly insalubrious coked out state of mind but more than that it shows what a genius he was during that era... Station to Station my favourite Bowie record...amazing !
