About
Geoff MacCormack takes us on his journey with the legendary David Bowie. We accompany him on stage when Ziggy Stardust was retired; to the famous Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia to recordPin Ups,Diamond Dogs,Young AmericansandStation To Station; backstage at such venues as Madison Square Garden in New York and the Universal Amphitheatre in LA; performing in front of the likes of Diana Ross, Paul McCartney, Salvador Dali and The Jackson Five; and on set during the filming of Nic Roeg’sThe Man Who Fell To Earth.
We are driven in Bowie’s Winnebago from LA to Albuquerque in one night with the help of a fountain pen; witness to a drug bust in Atlanta; nearly stabbed in New York and stranded with no ID in the wastelands of the USSR in 1973.
