I still find it hard to accept that David is no longer with us, likewise Strummer  |

Only just discovered this. Bowie really did surround himself with other talented people. Here, Gail Ann Dorsey not only mimics Freddie Mercury's falsetto vocal but also plays John Deacon's bass lines at the same time. Astounding.

^^ I'm still struggling to understand why anyone thought that was a good idea. Just listened to Kermode's review He gave Stardust very short shrift - describing it as "very bad" As you say PU, why? |

I've been watching Stardust on Amazon Prime seen about a third of it so far.
Does seem rather pointless.

I guess that if there is an official biopic then his stepbrother's tragic mental history will be documented as even official biopics seem to always have a dark angle to drive the story.
It is referenced throughout Stardust. As his stepbrother apparently introduced him to a lot of countercultural things he was obviously a key influence.
