David Bowie 1947 - 2016 (PVG)
Author: Wise Publications
Publisher: Wise Publications
ISBN: 1783238542
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This commemorative songbook features 20 of David Bowie’s greatest hits, spanning his entire career from 1969 to 2016. Each song is arranged for Piano, Vocal and Guitar, with full lyrics and Guitar chord boxes. David Bowie was an actor, a fashion icon, an artist, a mime and a writer, but above all, his creative output as a musician brought him the respect, admiration and adoration enjoyed by few other pop stars before or since. His consistent re-invention of his aesthetic, style and sound, as well as his mysterious alter egos enabled him to mould his music to a number of genres, eluding easy classification and producing a string of widely acclaimed albums and singles. This collection represents this musical icon, from his first single Space Oddity, to Lazarus, with a lengthy introductory tribute from renowned music journalist Chris Charlesworth. This is the perfect way to pay tribute to the legendary Starman. Songlist: - Absolute Beginners - Ashes To Ashes - Changes - Golden Years - Heroes - The Jean Genie - Lazarus - Let’s Dance - Life On Mars? - The Man Who Sold The World - Modern Love - Oh! You Pretty Things - Rock ’n’ Roll Suicide - Sound And Vision - Space Oddity - Starman - Suffragette City - Where Are We Now? - Wild Is The Wind - Ziggy Stardust
