A bit shocked too about the cancer.
He was a visionary artist & had an immense effect on that era.
Met Bowie briefly at AIR studios in London April 1972 when Mott the Hoople was recording the Young Dudes album which he produced and wrote some material for. I had to run an acoustic guitar down there for Mick Ralphs for an overdub.
As a 20 year old meeting this wild legendary guy, I was a bit overwhelmed - Bowie had 2 different color eyes, was wearing a blue mandarin quilted jacket, pants with mushroom prints all over and large wooden dutch type shoes.
There were so many questions I wanted to ask about songwriting and his "persona" but it was other business that day. - Steelmanpa
