DAVID BOWIE

... is on the cover of the new Uncut magazine. Last month was Kate Bush. If Led Zeppelin or Frank Zappa appear next month I may have to buy shares or something (as a show of support - I'm not actually buying these). The article is about his 1976 Station to Station album, which melded pop with stark Euro proto-industrial sounds. It's kind of bleak and soulful at the same time. On left is a pic (from 1975-ish) appearing in the mag. Great look. Bowie is generally pretty stylin.
 
... for example, if you look this good in your mugshot you must be doing something right. It was taken at an arraignment 3 days after he and Iggy Pop got arrested for marijuana possession.
