<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A relentless innovator, scoring chart hits while simultaneously incorporating radical and ground-breaking elements into his work.</b> <p/>As with all great pop stars, Bowie's image changed with almost every new album release. This appetite for reinvention, both musically and visually, saw him dubbed the 'chameleon of pop'. But Bowie's influence extended well beyond his discography and make-up drawer. His androgynous qualities and public statements on his sexuality proved liberating for those who were uncertain about their own. <i>Lives of the Musicians: David Bowie</i> covers the years he spent struggling to find the right artistic outlet to the dramatic breakthrough in 1972 with Ziggy Stardust - and afterwards, the excessive lifestyle that nearly cost him his sanity. It continues with his artistic rebirth in Berlin during the late Seventies, the mainstream success he achieved with <i>Let's Dance</i> in 1983 and the artistic price that he paid for it.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Rob Dimery is a music journalist and writer. His publications include 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, Rock 'n' Roll Heaven and Rock History. He writes about popular music for Time Out and Vogue, and has also consulted on films including Michael Winterbottom's 24 Hour Party People.
