Bowie Album by Album

Bowie: Album by Album examines every one of Bowie's studio albums in fine detail, placing each within the context of the time in which it was recorded and charting all the albums' subsequent influence and legacy. As well as commentary from the musicians, engineers and producers who worked on the recordings - such as Brian Eno and Tony Visconti - Bowie's own quotes provide a fascinating insight into his restlessly creative mind. Every album is discussed in terms of musical and social impact, along with contemporary reviews from the likes of NME and Rolling Stone magazines, and a wealth of rare and previously unpublished photographs. It begins with an introduction to Bowie's early career as Davy Jones, and ends with an appendices detailing all of his single releases, live albums and soundtracks.
