David Bowie Rainbowman (1967-1980) is part 1 of Jerome Soligny's must-read definitive collection of Bowie's work and life. This volume covers releases from the debut self-titled "David Bowie" (1967) to "Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)" (1980).
The album-titled chapters are extensively researched and accompanied by fascinating quotes from Bowie himself as well as interviews with his close ones and collaborators over the years. The author is clearly both knowledgeable and passionate about this topic, and the care he took to spare no details made this an eye-opening and entertaining read on the music industry at the time. For this reason it gets a bit technical at times, so the style may not work as well for you if you prefer a more story-driven biography.
Musicians, music aficionados and Bowie fans will definitely enjoy this volume!
