|
Since his angst ridden adolescent years in Colditz, through to life as a greying father of two, Gary has been writing to his idol, David Bowie.Through 30 years of one way correspondence we now look back over a time in which both men have overcome life's obstacles. From Ziggy Stardust to Glass Spiders; and a nervous, naive teenager to unfulfilled adult. Through it all, Gary has shared his most intimate thoughts with this hero. Bowie's songs serve as succour, offering inspiration in his moments of bitterness, confusion, anxiety and finally liberation. Major Tom proves that we may all have to grow up, but we don't have to lose our heroes. Price guide £5.99 Publisher: Bobcat Books www.musicroom.com August 2006 |
