Starman - David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust Years
1972 erlebte die Geburt des Rock'n'Roll-Messias Ziggy Stardust, dessen provokantes Spiel mit sexueller Identität und Geschlechterrollen den Grundstein für David Bowies Aufstieg zum "einflussreichsten Popmusiker aller Zeiten" (New Musical Express) legte. Starman erzählt von Aufstieg und Fall des wohl berühmtesten Alter Egos der Musikgeschichte.Fesselnd verwebt Reinhard Kleist die Genese der schrillen Kunstfigur sowohl mit David Bowies glücklosem Bemühen in der Londoner Musikszene vor Ziggy Stardust wie auch mit seinem Ringen mit der eigenen Schöpfung auf dem Höhepunkt des Ruhms: Immer rasanter verwandelt sich Bowie selbst zum egozentrischen Rockstar, der an seinem ausschweifenden Lebensstil zu scheitern droht... Reinhard Kleists elegante und treffsichere Zeichnungen werden in Starman durch die Farbgebung von Thomas Gilke kongenial ergänzt.- Shop: buecher

At the Birth of Bowie , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 489min
It is 1965, and Swinging London is coming into its prime years. The streets are alive with mods and rockers, playboys and good-time girls, all revelling in the blossoming artistic, creative and cultural energies of the decade. Amid the colour and chaos is a boy sporting drainpipe jeans, an immaculately tailored sports coat and a half-inch wide tie. A devoted fan of The Who, he looks the part in his pristine mod gear. As the lead singer of the Lower Third, his talent is shaping itself into something truly special. His name is Davie Jones. In 10 years, he will be unrecognisable as fresh-faced boy of 1965, and in just over 50 years, his death will be mourned by millions, his legacy the story of the greatest rock star of all time. And, all through the years of the late '60s, Phil Lancaster was by his side. As the drummer in Bowie's band the Lower Third, Phil was there as the singer's musical stripes began to show and was witness to his early recording techniques, his first experimental forays into drug taking and the band's discovery of his bisexuality in shocking circumstances. In this riveting - and often very funny - memoir, Phil tells the story of life alongside the insecure yet blazingly talented boy who became Bowie, at a critical crossroad of time and place in music history. What follows is an intimate, personal and important perspective on the genesis of one of the most iconic musicians of the 20th century - one that gets under the skin of the man himself, before the personas and alter egos masked the fascinating figure beneath them. At the Birth of Bowie is essential listening for anyone who knows what happened on Bowie's journey but wants to understand how and why it ever began. ungekürzt. Language: English.

He'll risk his whole heart to save her from the past Gaby Cane was always a bit afraid of her attraction to Bowie McCayde.

Now ten years later, she's an aspiring journalist who can hold her own with any man professionally, the dark shadows of years gone by far behind her. Then Bowie strides back into her life - only this time, he needs her, and the pull of loyalty to his family is too strong to ignore. When Bowie asked Gaby to help save his family's Arizona ranch, he never expected the girl he once knew to return transformed into a stunning, successful woman.

Bowie , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 95min
Simon Critchley first encountered David Bowie in the early '70s, when the singer appeared on Britain's most-watched music show, Top of the Pops. His performance of "Starman" mesmerized Critchley: it was "so sexual, so knowing, so strange". Two days later Critchley's mum bought a copy of the single; she liked both the song and the performer's bright orange hair (she had previously been a hairdresser). The seed of a lifelong love affair was thus planted in the mind of her son, aged 12. In this concise and engaging excursion through the songs of one of the world's greatest pop stars, Critchley, whose writings on philosophy have garnered widespread praise, melds personal narratives of how Bowie lit up his dull life in southern England's suburbs with philosophical forays into the way concepts of authenticity and identity are turned inside out in Bowie's work. The result is nearly as provocative and mind-expanding as the artist it portrays. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Simon Critchley.
