David Bowie Part 4
The eighties open with Bowie in Clown mode. A chance encounter on a beach has brought on introspection and he decides to drop the clown and go for full on rockstar status.
Was this a good move?

The following decade sees lower output in terms of albums but a massive increase in workload, fame and income.

Kevin reflects on the change in direction and Steve reassesses the general opinion that not much of this was very good.
