Algernon, thanks for this. In my humble opinion, the radio stations overplayed his songs in the wake of his death. I can listen to his music in comfort now and reflect on the 1970s. Your timing is perfect.

The Friday after his death there was a David Bowie retrospective on Rage nothing announced just played really good stuff. I noticed the overplaying by radio stations and others. As you may know I got through the lists and pick those tunes most enjoyed and put them into a favourite playlist to play over the summer holidays Sort of a summer edition. I don’t like them to go beyond say this weekend.
I felt I needed to do a tribute list but not on top and thought the first list for the year was the appropriate time (and I only finished it this week). I thought the Blackstar album was somewhat disturbing, It is clear he is dying from the images so were the two songs I picked from the album. I picked the mid 60’s to the mid 80’s. The new music probably fits with how I listen to music nowadays.
Glad you enjoyed it

We remember him very fondly, Algy. When I was a pup I borrowed one of my flatmates’ specially imported Station to Station album. And put a tiny tiny scratch on it. It took months for him to get the thing and he was, well, not well-pleased. How to kill a friendship lesson #1. See – I’m still suffering remorse 40 years after….

Oh dear, might have added a little something. Some of my favourites were his early songs as well as a lot around the mid 70’s. The Blackstar tunes are quite spooky. He would have known he was dying at the time.
