“And so the story goes he wore the clothes...” *

Continuing the theme of last week’s classic Steve Schapiro shot from 1975, wherein Bowie gets away with wearing things many couldn’t, today’s image is a perfect example of exactly that.

* Tweaked

“Climbs across his bike and he’s away...”

Another iconic Steve Schapiro image from 1975.

There possibly aren’t too many that could don motorbike goggles and stay disarmingly beautiful...not even Uncle Arthur, the hero of today’s lyric quotation.

“Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool...”

Iconic shot of Bowie that Steve Schapiro created in 1975.

It made the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and a giant poster of it graced the walls of many a teenage bedroom in the 70s. Still got yours?

“Putting on a face that’s new...”

This Steve Schapiro shot from 1975 is a frame away from the shot that graced the cover of the 2016 WHO CAN I BE NOW? (1974 - 1976) box.

Many of the shots from this session encapsulate the very definition of timelessness. Agreed?

“You shall own a hay wain shirt...” *

Another fifty-year-old shot of Bowie taken by Steve Schapiro which provided the 1975 covers for both The Sunday Times Magazine and the Space Oddity reissue sleeve.

* We’ve tweaked the lyric, but from which song did we take it?

“Fame, what’s your name?”

Here's another shot of Bowie taken by Steve Schapiro. This time it’s from the September 1975 recording of Bowie’s appearance on Cher during the taping of his first #1 45, Fame.

The show was broadcast two months later.

“He’s so divine, His soul shines...”

What better way to kick off the weekend than a fifty-year-old shot of Bowie taken by Steve Schapiro?
