Young Girl, They Call Them The Diamond Dogs...

Day 16 of 25 Days of Bowie Extravaganza

This picture here is what I chose to represent Diamond Dogs. I don't care for the album cover, so this photo here is the next best thing.

The album Diamond Dogs is supposedly based off the book 1984 by George Orwell. I recomend to listen to the album while you read the book. See if you can make a connection.

Face to Face with the Man Who Sold the World

Day 15 of 25 Days of Bowie

Here's Bowie with his ex-wife Angela Bowie, probably during the Ziggy Stardust era.

Angela wrote a book about her time with Bowie called "Backstage Passes: Life on the Wild Side with David Bowie."

In the book she claims that she made Bowie into the star he is. She claims that the man-dress, androgyny, Ziggy Stardust, etc. was all her idea. I don't know the truth in that, but it was a scandalous, interesting read.
