Singer-songwriter Dory Previn said to me once, "I'd love you to do a psychosexual study of my work like the one you did about Sinatra." I laughed and said "a psychosexual study? Is that what I bloody well wrote!" But listening again after nearly a quarter-century to this radio show chat I had with Mike Murphy to mark Bowie's 50th birthday, Dory's comment more seriously comes to mind. This is a psychosexual study of Bowie, to a great degree, and with which Mike at times clearly did not agree! You may side with him or me or think it is all crap! Either way, this is my belated podcast tribute to Bowie who gave way to that black star - taking his title from an Elvis song of the same name - far too soon
