Author: Sean Mayes

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 240


The death of David Bowie at the age of 69, after a courageous battle with cancer, has shocked the world and music fans across generations. This is a unique and candid account of life on tour with a true icon. In 1978, Sean Mayes toured the world with David Bowie. Travelling first class and performing each night with one of the world's greatest rock stars at the height of his fame was an amazing experience - fortunately, Sean had the foresight to document it. Life on Tour with Bowie boasts exclusive candid tour photographs from Sean's personal archive as well as a full chronology from this most iconic of tours, which gives this title an immediacy and authenticity unrivalled by any of the slew of unauthorized biographies on him. In much the same vein as Ian Hunter's seminal Diary of a Rock and Roll Star (praised by Q as `the greatest rock memoir of all time), this is a slice of history - written as history happened, from the most intimate, wide-eyed of perspectives. It is a collector's item for fans of the most memorabilia-associated rock icon of them all.
