*** With consultant editor Tony Visconti. 'An unearthed trove of
Bowie treasure' - David Mitchell David Bowie's story has never been
told quite like this. Tracing the star's encounters with fellow
icons throughout his life, We Could Be offers a new history of
Bowie, collecting 300 short stories that together paint a portrait
of humour, humility, compassion, tragedy and more besides. He
teaches Michael Jackson the moonwalk. He embarrasses himself in
front of Lennon and Warhol. He saves the life of Nina Simone. He
also taught John McEnroe to play 'Rebel Rebel'; had run-ins with
Lou Reed, Axel Rose and Liam Gallagher, and had his feet measured
by Freddie Mercury at their first meeting. Individually
astonishing, together these stories - including details never
before revealed - build a new picture of Bowie, one which shows his
vulnerability, his sense of humour, his inner diva. Exhaustively
researched from thousands of sources by BBC reporter and Bowie
obsessive Tom Hagler - with the guidance and memories of Bowie's
long-time producer Tony Visconti - We Could Be is fascinating,
comic, compelling, and a history of Bowie unlike any that has come
before.
