Vale David Bowe ...

David Bowe died today.  He was an exceptional songwriter and musician and successfully stood the test of time since the 1970s.  How many can say that?  Not many.  If you have never experienced his music ... you should one day.  I can remember when one of his records, 'Alladin Sane' was released in the 1970s ... it was considered outrageous and still stands up well today.  He will be long remembered due to his original contribution to our world.  David Bowe was different ... and that was OK.

Excellent summary of his life:
