BOWIEGOLDENYEARS.com

BOWIEGOLDENYEARS was created in 2000 as a tribute to David Bowie's golden age at a time when the internet was not yet awash with Bowie tribute sites. Over time the site grew and became a popular source of Bowie history.

In 2010 The Guardian named the site Internet Pick Of The Week. As a result Omnibus Press asked me to author a large format fully illustrated book based on the site and broaden it to cover 1970 to 1980.

In December 2016 David Bowie The Golden Years was published internationally by Omnibus Press.

A Japanese language version was subsequently published by Shinko Music.

Since the book's completion I have been overhauling BOWIEGOLDENYEARS and have been uploading pages as they are completed.

Stay tuned here and at the book's Facebook page for news and updates.
