well c'mon BanjoRay... your name is a bit of a give away to your prefered tastes in music..

Not as if it's LespaulRay.. or Marshall200wattampRay...

See your list, I've enjoyed listening to most of 'em....
some much more than others...

No big problem if you're not too keen on Bowie - opinions vary, and as long as we can respect each other's differences.


Me personally, I think Mick Ronson was the key creative artist behind my favourite Bowie LPs.
They were an amazing team - each bringing the best out of each other to = sheer pop/rock perfection.

It just so happens that by pure simple accident of birth, geography and culture
Bowie.. and Alice Cooper, Marc Bolan, the Sweet and Slade.. etc.. [errrrmmm.. Gary Glitter..]
were the catalystic artists that engaged and thrilled me
as i Left childhood and entered the crazy world of teenage rebellion...

.. and the early 70s were an amazingly special intense melting pot of music and counter culture
that came to fruition from the endeavours of post war and swinging 60s experimentalist pioneers.....😎

It was a very odd, confusing, and wonderful era to start learning how to be a young adult...
