STEFAN ALMERS At the edge of the stage with David Bowie 9 pictures from 1976 David Bowie No. 4 David Bowie No. 3 Front Cover: David Bowie No. 7 David Bowie No. 1 STEFAN ALMERS At the edge of the stage with David Bowie 9 pictures from 1976 Photographer/cinematographer, Stefan Almers from Sweden, took these pictures of a 29 year old Bowie during his concert at Stockholm's Royal Tennis Hall on the Isolar tour, his ‘Thin White Duke’ era. Stefan says “In 1976 I was working around the clock as a commercial photographer, so the black and white negatives were unused while 40 years of my life passed. In Autumn last year, while moving my studio from Stockholm to southern Sweden, I found them.” Almers was only 20 and at the start of his career when he stood at the edge of the stage at the sold-out concert and photographed the music legend, but he still managed to achieve good lighting, which has helped the images stand the test of time. He says “The unique thing about the pictures is that he's singing with so much feeling, and I was so close”. Word on a Wing, Queen Bitch and Life on Mars were some of the Swede's favourite songs performed by Bowie at the Stockholm show 40 years ago.

From “Please Mr. Gravedigger,” the theatrical closing number on his 1967 self-titled debut album, to virtually every track on his final record nearly 50 years later, the protean musician mused perpetually on all matters of mortality: the loss of loved ones (“Jump They Say,” about his brother’s suicide), the apocalyptic end of the world (“Five Years”), his own impending passing.

David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text 1 David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text Jean Du Verger “The Word is devided into units which be all in one piece and should be so taken, but the pieces can be had in any order being tied up back and forth, in and out fore and aft like an innaresting sex arrangement. This book spill off the page in all directions, kaleidoscope of vistas, medley of tunes and street noises […]” William Burroughs, The Naked Lunch, 1959. Introduction 1 The urban landscape occupies a specific position in Bowie’s works. His lyrics are fraught with references to “city landscape[s]”5 and urban nightscapes. The metropolis provides not only the object of a diegetic and spectatorial gaze but it also enables the author to further a discourse on his own inner fragmented self as the nexus, lyrics— music—city, offers an extremely rich avenue for investigating and addressing key issues such as alienation, loneliness, nostalgia and death in a postmodern cultural context.

I Can't Explain David Bowie, Or Can I? by Brian Nickens As Early As 10
I Can’t Explain David Bowie, Or can I? By Brian Nickens As early as 10 years old I was listening to a steady diet of British Rock. The Beatles, Kinks, Rolling Stones and Cream were in full swing. I was the youngest of 5 children and retreating into my Bedroom alone listening to my older Brothers alBums Became my sanctuary. And Boy, could I listen! I rememBer lying on my Bedroom floor late at night with the record player turned down real low so my parents couldn’t hear. With my ear right against the speaker, I would analyze every tone, sound and lyric of all my favorite songs. By the time I was 14 years old I was already a legit Beatles connoisseur. I would listen to the guitar riffs on Taxman over and over, and over again. I loved the raunchy distorted guitar sounds. Then came Bowie! David and I: The year was 1973. I was 14 years old and went with a friend of mine to visit Marianna his “girlfriend”. When we arrived we were invited into the living room where she and a friend of hers had two albums of David Bowie. They insisted we hang out and listen. The albums were Aladdin Sane and Pin Ups. I was smitten By the sound of these records. I had never heard anything like it. Bowie's otherworldly look made the sounds even more intriguing. David Bowie instantly became my favorite singer. I didn’t have to think aBout it, or ponder it or even get used to the sound.

Mr. Bowie Changes Trains: Station to Station Written for Artist Doug
Mr. Bowie Changes Trains: Station to Station Written for artist Doug Aitken's 2015 "Station to Station" art event IN THE DAYS of vinyl album sleeves, rock music was always a synaesthetic experience, and David Bowie's Station to Station is nothing if not white: a white-out of cleansing and purging, if also of cocaine euphoria. Station to Station is also a bit red (the lettering) and a tad orange (the tangerine RCA label). White seemed right for Bowie in 1975/76, at least until the "Thin White Duke" talked foolishly and ill-advisedly of fascism and Hitler and you wondered if it was the White of Aryan supremacy that he meant to convey. Which of course it wasn't: half the Duke's group was black, for starters. Bowie's whole career is a journey from station to station, and his tenth album Station to Station remains one of the most impressive of his musical junctions: intense, passionate, focused, surging and urgently funky – stripped-back, too, just as its iconography is stripped-back and monochromatic after the hypertrophied dystopianism of Diamond Dogs and the funky-but- chic hustle of Young Americans. Station to Station is also a miracle, given the physical/chemical state of the Skeletal White Duke in the Los Angeles of 1975. (Was there ever a less Californian rock god than Bowie?) "I heard Station to Station and I thought it was brilliant, absolutely mindblowing," recalled the former Deep Purple bassist Glenn Hughes, at whose L.A. home Bowie stayed in May and June of that year.
