Competition: Win copies of David Bowie, Changes: His Life in Pictures

Plenty was written about the 'androgynous boy from Beckenham with the different coloured eyes' during his lifetime, and much more since his passing, early in 2016.
David Bowie was without comparison, a truly unique, ever evolving artist with a creativity it was impossible for others to tap into, and impossible for Bowie to stem.

He pushed boundaries - with his music, with his mind, and with his fashion.  There have been wannabes and pale imitations, but there will never be another quite like David Bowie.

Changes, with its gorgeous assembly of photographs, recalls all of the sparkle and delight that came with his early creations, through to his Saville row suits.

This book takes a nostalgic walk through Bowie's career and sensational style, with respected writer Chris Welch providing the words.

As a music journalist, Chris went on the road with Led Zeppelin, The Who and yep, Bowie, during the 1970s.  There is no need to improvise, or for vacuous paragraphs, or embellished 'insights'.  Chris was there, and plunges his own memory and archives to support the photograpic finery on offer here.

A tidy package of Bowie at his most brilliant, year after year, and page after page.

David Bowie - Changes: His Life in Pictures is released on Thursday (September 8).
