Finally managing to get off the sofa and go to bed early this morning - 2am in Florida, I put on BBC World News and there it was - the first bulletin. I didn't go to bed until 4am. I started my day off listening to Stay. Bowie was not only an innovator, but an inspiration. A Starman indeed.
Such a great era, CC. This album was the one I really cut my teeth on with Bowie. Not a bad note on there. Echorich, you were probably one of the first Americans to see the news. By the time I got up at 6:30 west coast time everyone had a post up. I got the news from the Robster's place. He ws my first stop today. Stunned doesn't quite capture it.

ReplyDeleteWhen you rock 'n' roll with me
ReplyDeleteNo one else I'd rather be
Nobody here can do it for me
I'm in tears again
When you rock 'n' roll with me.
Yes, a starman. Thanks for these words CC.
