Customer Reviews
Very good - but check the script!
A good review of the life and inspirations of Bowie. Although we do learn that an early TV inspiration was something called "The Quartermass (sic) Experiment" and that he worked with a producer called Gus Dungeon. Oh well...
Patchy
This could have been excellent BUT there are loads of mistakes and mispronunciations. Approach with caution and do not take seriously. You’re better off buying a biography or watching one of the many documentaries out there. Or even listening to another Bowie podcast such as The A-Z of Bowie with Marc Riley & Rob Hughes, or Fantastic Voyage or AlbumToAlbum. You’ll learn all the proper facts with those
