Not much to be said beyond this from David Baddiel this morning…

Not just upset by Bowie’s death but disorientated: like I’ve woken up and the world is out of joint. I think I assumed he was immortal.

Beyond the usual Telegraph Obit, and a wee note on his past collaboration with Iggy Pop..

David Bowie Mix Jan 2016. by Dj Rusty Egan on Mixcloud

And if you missed it there’s the 1975 interview where he explains to Russell Harty that writing and performing even popular music is a discipline..

And plenty of space in the comment zone for you to share links, stories and YouTubes (just a URL will auto-embed the actual video) of your own favourite bits…

In my way of thinking, anything is possible. Life is at the bottom of things and belief at the top, while the creative impulse, dwelling in the center, informs all.

– Patti Smith, Brainpickings
