Although David Bowie has famously characterized himself as a "leper
messiah," a more appropriate moniker might be "rock god": someone
whose influence has crossed numerous sub-genres of popular and
classical music and can at times seem ubiquitous. By looking at key
moments in his career (1972, 1977-79, 1980-83, and 1995-97) through
several lenses-theories of sub-culture, gender/sexuality studies,
theories of sound, post-colonial theory, and performance studies,
Waldrep examines Bowie's work in terms not only of his auditory
output but his many reinterpretations of it via music videos,
concert tours, television appearances, and occasional movie roles.
Future Nostalgia looks at all aspects of Bowie's career in an
attempt to trace Bowie's contribution to the performative paradigms
that constitute contemporary rock music.
