David Bowie Part Two
Following an epic Part One with Phil and Mel, we were unable to fit our Hunky Dory conversation in. So here it is, in all its glory, in Part Two. Then, we welcome music writer Steve Walsh to the studio to discuss The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, Aladdin Sane, Pin-Ups, Diamond Dogs and Young Americans. We talk about how Bowie constantly reinvents himself during this very creative period, while invariably leaving behind a whole host of loyal musical collaborators in his wake.
Look out for Part 3 in 4 weeks time, in which we'll be joined by Darren Worth, to discuss Station to Station, Low, Heroes, Lodger and Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps).
