For real. And Prince just a few months after Bowie! Ye gods! I mused who was more musically brilliant, and I had to choose Prince (I mean, come on now, it's Prince, lol!), but the fact that it was worthy of consideration says a lot about how gigantic Bowie's talent was! And his INTERVIEWS! Oh, how endlessly watchable and wonderful he was!

So glad I got to see this legend at Glastonbury 2000, belting out the hits. Bowie is one of those who just was a totally unique one-off, I'd suggest doing his other classics like Life on Mars, Changes, Heroes, Ashes to Ashes and so on. Real musical genius, you'll love him.

I was lucky enough to be there too, it was the last year before the super wall went up so the site was definitely over populated! I turned around during Bowie's set to look back and the crowd seemed to go on forever. And then he played Heroes and I was in bits! Special.

@@davidmannion7333 I know...a mate of mine said he'd watch Bowie for a couple of songs and then go over to the acoustic stage to see another act. He turned to look at the crowd - we were stood to the right of the mixing desk - and said 'Oh F***' realising by the time he got out of the crowd & made it to the acoustic stage, he'd have missed most of it, so he remained to watch Bowie😄

Another of the first songs concerned with space travel is Jethro Tull's "For Michael Collins, Jeffrey and Me" from their "Benefit" album. Michael Collins was a member of the Apollo 11 crew, that was the mission of the first lunar landing, but he was the one who remained in the Command Module while the others descended to the moon's surface and became the first men to walk on the moon,. (I am embarrassed to admit that all of this was lost on me back in the day, it was actually fairly recently that I finally delved into the song's lyrics.) The "Benefit" album was released in 1970, so maybe you will consider this song for your 1970s week.

I'm not sure our pal, Hector, got what happened to Major Tom in the latter part of the song, because he didn't show any reaction to it. That's not a criticism of him, because it was his first listen and he was understandably lost in the sauce. There's a lot to take in. But it's cool, it just means he'll experience that poignant reveal in a subsequent listen. And when he does, it will enhance his appreciation of the song exponentially. This is one of the 10 best rock/pop songs of all-time.

No two albums are alike - in my opinion - and he was so avant-garde that I'll admit he lost me a couple of times, & I had to 'grow' in order to catch up. Choose anything, it's all good. Thanks.
