BOWIEGOLDENYEARS was created in 2000 as a tribute to David Bowie's golden age. 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 its scope to 1970-1980.

In December 2016 David Bowie The Golden Years was published internationally by Omnibus Press. A Japanese language version was also published by Shinko Music.

Since the book's completion I have been expanding and redesigning BOWIEGOLDENYEARS and uploading pages as they are completed.
The golden links are live.
