I must correct myself - there is an article, but I thought it was a general article … Didn't he just publish a new album ?

Two days ago. Wouldn't it be in character if this was just his way of retiring from public life? The conspiracy theory starts here!

RIP one of the Greats.

Reports are that he knew he was dying 18 months ago and started work on the new album released on his 69th birthday(Jan.8/16).

Wonderful article about his final days, by the NY Times. The more becomes known, the less hope I have that this is all not just some crazy hoax - I simply don't want it to be true.

Like many, I have been enjoying Bowie's music these last few days. Today I have been enjoying the soundtrack to 'Falcon & Snowman', with the added bonus of being composed by Pat Metheny. That is where the song 'This is Not America' comes from.

I loved the book "Abbey Road to Ziggy Stardust" by engineer/producer Ken Scott from a few years ago, and he details loads of stuff about Bowie in the book … Good read if you are into the nuts and bolts of things.
