R.I.P. David Bowie


Passed yesterday after a long battle with cancer. He was 69 years old. Goodbye Major Tom, you will be missed.

While I don't own a single Bowie record,  his passing actually made me stop the car when I heard the news.  Even without a single record in my collection he got enough airplay on what's left of the "radio" to keep me listening.  I've just downloaded his complete catalogue this morning.  I'd forgotten how much I liked his music.

Many of the tributes,  memorials and whatnot that have since been aired on the waves and television have done well to illustrate his sense of humor,  intelligence,  and artistry.  His contribution to music,  and popular culture in general runs deep - the list of artists naming him as an influence is endless.

A class act,  and a good human being.
