I was devastated to learn of David Bowie’s death a week ago. In the meantime, I’ve been watching lots of his videos on YouTube, and listening to his albums, starting with the oldest one, on Spotify. Here’s a collection of links found/shared on FB.
- David Bowie’s ‘Blackstar’ Album Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard 200 Chart – Fantastic! Blackstar debuts at #1 and “nine further albums either re-enter or debut on the Billboard 200 (US) chart. Among them are two further titles in the top 40: the greatest hits collection Best of Bowie (No. 4) and The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars (No. 21).”
