Bowie Odyssey 70

He starts the decade a teenage pop idol. But the one-hit wonder who sang &;Space Oddity&; is still very far from becoming the star who will one day define the 1970s. Not when he still has a band to find, a manager to sack, a mentally ill brother to save, a wife to marry and a rival called Marc Bolan to beat. Not when David Bowie still has no idea who or what David Bowie is.Starting at the beginning of Bowie&;s incredible ten-year odyssey changing the course of pop music, Simon Goddard&;s bold and expressionistic biography weaves time, space, rock&;n&;roll and social history to relive Bowie&;s 1970 &; moment by vivid moment.
