David Bowie: every single song. Everything you want to know,
everything you didn't know. David Bowie remains mysterious and
unknowable, despite 45 years of recording and performing. His
legacy is roughly 600 songs, which range from psychedelia to glam
rock to Philadelphia soul, from avant-garde instrumentals to global
pop anthems. Rebel Rebel catalogs Bowie's songs from 1964 to 1976,
examines them in the order of their composition and recording, and
digs into what makes them work. Rebel Rebel is an in-depth look at
Bowie's early singles and album tracks, unreleased demos, session
outtakes and cover songs. The book traces Bowie's literary, film
and musical influences and the evolution of his songwriting. It
also shows how Bowie exploited studio innovations, and the roles of
his producers and supporting musicians, especially major
collaborators like Brian Eno, Iggy Pop and Mick Ronson. This book
places Bowie's music in the context of its era. Readers will
discover the links between Kubrick's 2001 and "Space Oddity"; how A
Clockwork Orange inspired "Suffragette City". The pages are a trip
through Bowie's various lives as a young man in Swinging London, a
Tibetan Buddhist, a disillusioned hippie, a rock god, and a
Hollywood recluse. With a cast of thousands, including John Lennon,
William S. Burroughs, Andy Warhol and Cher.
