David Bowie - 'Ashes To Ashes' Clown Suit Story | Adam Buxton 

I don’t get it. What is the Blackstar supposed to mean?

Transmeesha X The name of Bowie's last album released right around the time he passed away.

Sirius B Dog Star

And the flame of the lighter is a flash like Ziggy stardust. Funny and a great little touch.

@@transmeeshax6872 blackstar was his last album he released before he died of throat cancer induced by cigarettes.

That would be immense!

Yes! I would love this to be done for all his albums.

Maybe becuase they appear to take 6 years to make?

Loved it and then saw it was THE Adam Buxton from my teen years. As in "ball, ball, ball. Footie, footie, footie" - The Adam and Joe Show was such inspiration! Cheers, Adam. Now I'm gonna go through this page vid by vid. Respect!

@@seanxtastic88 In case you're unaware, he also has a podcast :)

@@OrgaNik_Music I don't have a suit either. Still killin it!

Well said .. :-)

Do you have a link to it? Would love to see it!

Anyone know which documentary? Link not necessary in case it gets deleted…I’ll search

Tony Visconti was the co-producer on "Low", and did more than people think. Bowie himself said "Over the years not enough credit has gone to Tony Visconti on those particular albums. The actual sound and texture, the feel of everything from the drums to the way that my voice is recorded, is Tony Visconti.", and that's because Tony Visconti was the co-producer on Low. Many people think Eno was, but that's not true. Tony Visconti, the *actual* co-producer on "Low" actually mentioned this when he said "Brian is a great musician, and was very integral to the making of those three albums [Low, "Heroes" and Lodger]. But he was not the producer." This is because he wasn't the producer. The production was done by David Bowie and Tony Visconti. In fact, the initial recordings which were made almost got scrapped when David Bowie suggested they be treated as demos before he was convinced otherwise by Tony Visconti.It kind of makes sense when you think about it, because Tony Visconti ended up being the co-producer of "Low" and did a lot more than people think.

@@KnjazNazrath What people don't get is that Brian Eno is a musician and also a "producer" while Visconti is a producer and also a "musician"

@@arthurverlaine6434 Now what in tarnation is that supposed to mean ??

@@gandalfstormcrow7943 different life/career paths and choices

True story from my neighbor Mike D, film maker, AD.

I caught him misbehaving a few times though.

Which Bowie didn't actually have!

@@marksav8181 If you look closely to his photos he actually has a blue and a grayish green eye. Plus one of his pupils was permanently enlarged due to a fight

@@kingofbruhssia4639 He had anisocoria due to the fight but both eyes were the same colour, it's a contraction of the iris that made it appear darker due to simultaneous contrast.

@@marksav8181 Technically his eyes should be the same color but some photos show him have a green and a blue eye no one knows why lol

@@kingofbruhssia4639 well they do, it was because of his anisocoria and simultaneous contrast 😜

It is, I've read that story before.

Yes it is, Bowie told it himself.

Ha!

It's warszawa

I've got some bad news...

@@ferrisbueller3231 well that was not an bio-pic accepted by the family and in fact there is no music by David besides having the facts kind of distorted, so I believe it is better to pretend that it didn't even exist lol
