2 days after his Birthday and releasing his 25th album I think they said. 18 month battle with Cancer. I can't believe that January is taking important people from me every year it seems! Very Sad about this one.

It is very sad that he passed away today. He made some of the best albums in rock music history. I saw him 2 times in concert. The Ziggy Stardust album is one of my all time favorite album.

Thanks to all the people that have posted here. I will be honest with you that I am still not processing all this. Another death and though I obviously didn't know David Bowie he was a very big influence in my younger years and later I saw how he evolved in so many ways. I admire him always and can not help but smile when he speaks as he has such a very good energy about him. I hope that in his honor it would be pretty cool if this thread could stay up for some time. I made it so pictures and videos could be posted. I am still beside myself. Even tonight it is only 7 days from the one year that I lost my Mother on January 18th. and before that it was my beautiful friend and Love Orsi that took her own life not many days from all this and her birthday this month as well. January is becoming some kind of a dark place in my mind right now. But in the true honor of all of these people I love and admire I know that to celebrate life is what is better. Death from this world will happen one day. Living and loving while we are here and making this a good place to be and learning to forgive and learn are the things we can do while we are here. Sorry if some feel I am too personal here but it is ok. I have to be myself maybe even more than I was before. I look at all that these people did in the time they lived and they have done so much. When I had met Orsi in Budapest we sang and played music in the flat I rented there and got crazy wild and within a year of that she was making music with Quantum Cowboys and on her way to a real career. Admittedly I will always feel she died too young but then suddenly I see this video "Darkstar" and I actually am haunted by the woman and her movements in it. My Mother made it to 74 and also did so much as in having such a great artistic and loving gift to this world. I can not begin to explain what she was to so many people. And not a man I admired from so far back and I remember when I was in the hospital from near death and my Mother brought me a magazine with David Bowie on it and other things that were memorabilia of him because they knew how important he was to me. So now decades later to hear suddenly that he is just gone. no warning. no hint. He actually and probably knew as he made this last album that it was near. Especially just watching the video and listening to the lyrics. I feel like driving a plane or fast bike thru the skies and street but won't. But in all this I am glad that these people and family and Lover made such a special part of my life. I only do this here because though I only talk to a very very few people I have been here so long it seems like a place that is familiar. So thanks again. I know that the passing of David Bowie is probably not one that will touch everyone and I also know that it will have a impact on more than I can imagine. I already have seen and listened to a song that was just made by a musician that I actually volunteered to do the vocals because they evoked a Bowie type lyrics and style form his Music....I can not believe I made that commitment a week ago and then this. I remember when i was in Ireland Dublin seeing a lovely lady from this site that we walked into a pub where a Bowie cover band was playing and for me it was like magic. It is different here in the USA. Or mybe I just have not been to all the right places. I think that even though Bowie is Huge here that he is again that "Familiarity" in Europe. I mean he was born there and so on...ok..I will shut my post. LOL.
R.I.P. David Bowie and also condolences to his now widow "Iman" and all of his family.

thanks to all of you.
Bettis

Sad Day - Very talented musician as well as a singer sad flower

Davy Jones was a great bloke and Avant Garde regarding Pop at the time I met him.
I was working with Big Bands, Jazz groups and a 6 piece MoR band at the time he was playing with a band Called "Oliver Twist and the Lower Third" when it formed.

I Knew their drummer, Les Mighall, as I gave him lessons when he first started playing drums when I was in the RAF Fighter Command band in 1958-1960 when I cam home to Ramsgate on leave.

"Oliver Twist and the Lower Third" was formed in 1963 in Margate and
Disbanded in January 1966
Members -- Davy Jones (aka Bowie) (vocals, Tenor saxophone, Alto saxophone, 1965-66), Denis 'Tea-Cup' Taylor (Lead guitar), Graham Rivens (Bass), Les Mighall (Drums, 1963-65), Phil Lancaster (Drums, 1965-66)
