My first album

[@wpollock1]

I am from Detroit and Bowie witnessed the aftermath of the riots in Detroit in 1967 - some areas were almost post apocalyptic. Great interview! Great album.....Mike Garson is a piano god.

[@ClassicAlbumSundays]

agreed about Garson! Thanks for your feedback. Detroit is one of the best music cities in the world.

I could listen to Ken all day. So glad I found these videos of him discussing these amazing albums and his work on them.

I remember discovering David Bowie at a house party 1975. I commandeered the record player and played the Ziggy album twice over having heard nothing like it. It was like "hearing" a color television for the first time.
