David Bowie - the Stories Behind the Classic Songs 1970 1980 (Stories Behind the Songs)

Five stars for David.I have been a fan since the mid 60's as he was always varying his music and styles, but always original with his music.Gone but never forgotten.All of his music was fantastic.Charles

A great book for fans and casual listeners

Disappointing. A collection of college-style song reviews with just as much insight into them. Was hoping for something like the outstanding The Complete David Bowie but with more titbits and trivia but the book sadly doesn't deliver. Avoid.

Just tells you what the songs say (simplistically at that) with a very few quotes from well-known interviews. Almost no stories behind the songs from Bowie or others involved.

A well written and researched book.
