Been on a Jazz kick of late. Chuck Mangione, George Benson, Boney James, Rick Braun, etc. Here's what I'm waking up to this morning.

You are not alone. The man was a true artist whose influence spanned genres as well as decades. There is a big Bowie-shaped hole in my world this morning, but as Simon Pegg so perfectly put it:

"If you're sad today, just remember the world is over 4 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie."

Thank you for the music, Mr. Jones. Rest in peace.

While I'm listening to the entire CD here at home here's the lead off song from 'Last Man Standing' Jimmy Page on guitar and of course the Killer himself on piano.

David Bowie - Let's Dance~RIP Brother

The last David Bowie album "Dark Star". Kind of a gloomy sound

Pretty neat / https://youtu.be/5J2Hem_SDYc

It's a bit of a bowie overload at the moment, not that I care, a good opportunity for a retrospective, it's just a shame that a load of people who never liked or knew his music before will all of a sudden be aficionados for a week or so.

Another dead rocker - Amy Winehouse - Back to Black.

What a loss - her delivery is amazing ... such a sad end to her life
