    Today weve lost a great musical genius David Bowie 69

    How sad today losing David Bowie. He was a musical hero and inspiration to myself and many others. Off to join John Lennon and many others in the great band in the sky. R.I.P. His music lives on. My thoughts are with his friends and family at this time.

    Oh geez, sorry to hear that, he basically started his own musical genre simply called "Bowie", I'll agree with you, he certainly was an innovator, he'll be sorely missed.

    RIP David Bowie. Great musician. I can't believe he's gone.

    He starred in a movie directed by Jim Henson, called Labyrinth, I've got it on DVD, in the movie David Bowie played the Goblin King Jareth, the movie soundtrack featured songs written by David Bowie.


    Have to admit, I quite liked his music.

    He was also in The Man Who Fell To Earth, the book was far better than the movie.

    RIP starman

    Gutted. A true visionary. He defined what was cool for much of his career.
    'As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll.'

    Wasn't he also part of the Glam Rock scene for a part of his career?, or am I mistaken?

    It's hard to categorise Bowie really each album/cd was something new or different. In Uncut magazine he had 7 CDs in top 200. Some of which I loved others not so much,but always so varied.
    185 The Man Who Sold The World
    114 “Heroes”
    105 Diamond Dogs
    30 Station To Station
    19 Low
    12 Ziggy Stardust
    11 Hunky Dory

    His most successful chart wise was Lets Dance with guitar work by Stevie Ray Vaughan

    Looks like I'll have to start collecting some Bowie albums.
