DAVID BOWIE
 Few artists re-invent their image and sound as effectively as David Bowie managed to do several times during his career. He developed a glam rock star image in the early 1970s before pursuing a 'plastic soul' direction, followed by avant-pop, experimental electronica and then formed the group Tin Machine.
Across the decades he delivered a series of influential singles that included "Space Oddity", "John I'm Only Dancing", "Fame", "Heroes", "Fashion", "Ashes To Ashes", "Let's Dance" and "Jump They Say". 
Bowie collaborated with the likes of Queen ("Under Pressure"), Tina Turner ("Tonight"), The Pet Shop Boys ("Hallo Spaceboy") and Mick Jagger ("Dancing In The Street"). 
He was born David Jones in London in 1947. So as to avoid confusion with Davey Jones from The Monkees, the British aspiring singer / songwriter adopted the new surname Bowie. 
As well as conquering the world charts with key albums that included 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars', 'Low', "Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)' and 'Blackstar', Bowie starred in films and theatrical productions. 
The planet mourned his loss when he died of liver cancer on January 10, 2016 in New York City. Bowie leaves behind a legacy of recordings that bear witness to his unique versatility and vision.
