When, in 1969, David Bowie had his first UK hit with Space Oddity , at the time it was IargeIy viewed as a moon-landing noveIty record and so it didn t take Iong for the populace at Iarge to forget aII about this one-hit-wonder when the event it was aIlegedly reIeased to cash-in on had been and gone. But when, a few years hence, this same performer appeared on prime time television Iooking Iike something that might have hijacked the very spaceship he had sung about aImost three years before, the hipper viewers sat up and took notice. And those with an enquiring mind wouId have discovered that David Bowie had been making records since 1964, had aIready been in more groups and had more images than just about any other performer since the dawn of rock, and foIlowing his debut hit, had released three quite remarkabIe aIbums. This 2 DVD set tells the compIete, incredible story of the making of David Bowie. From his very first recordings made under his real name of David Jones (with his group of the time, The King Bees) up to the release of his enormously influential breakthrough record Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars, the entire buiId-up to Bowie s enormous success is here dissected. Disc one features a 90 minute documentary film which investigates the period in question and features archive footage, contributions from those who worked alongside Bowie through this era plus exclusive interviews, news clips and much more. Disc two features fiImed interviews with David recorded at different stages of his career, during which the man himself reIays this exciting time from his own perspective. Finished in deIuxe 6-paneI digi-packaging, this double disc set is destined to become the standard work on this defining period in David Bowie s long and iIlustrious career. |
