Bowie - Nov 2009 SoHo NYC

My hero David Bowie is 63 today – so Happy Birthday to him.

It’s been several years since his last album (Reality, 2003) and well publicised ill-health whilst on the tour to support the album – and he’s been laying low with infrequent media appearances (celeb stuff with his wife Iman, supporting his son’s movie “Moon“, some movie and music cameos). Recently there’s the stamps thing plus a new live album (based on the live DVD) of his Reality tour out at the end of the month.

There has been no new music either rumoured or released – and some fans have speculated that he’s really not well.

It was almost a relief when back in November these photos surfaced of DB walking around in SoHo NYC looking quite the dapper man about town (what’s in that bag? a new album?)  

So – happy birthday DB and lets have some new music you old bugger!
