Backstage Passes: Life on the Wild Side with David Bowie by Angela Bowie
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.4 MB
Overview: There are countless books about the great rock/pop icon of the 20th century David Bowie. But there’s only one written by the woman who met him aged just 19, married him, had a child with him, and helped shape his image and the early stages of his career.
In one of the great rock ‘n’ roll exposés, Angela Mary Hartnett Bowie gives a riveting account of her years with Bowie and his progress from aspiring young singer to international rock stardom. She emerges as a witty, powerful personality in her own right, and as his partner of 10 years, she has insights into his background and personality that are exclusively hers.
This is a fascinating glimpse into the music and club scene of early-’70s London, and later the rock lifestyle in New York and Los Angeles. Angie knew everyone and gives a colorful, wry account of the ambience and her brushes with other giants of the decade – Jagger, Elton John, Lou Reed, the Jacksons, and members of Led Zeppelin, to name just a few. Her story gives a unique take on life with the inscrutable Bowie, and she recounts the dissolution of their marriage and his descent into cocaine addiction, with courage and charm.
