Brian Duffy Brian Duffy defined the image of the 1960s, and was as famous as the stars he photographed. Together with David Bailey and Terence Donovan, he is recognized as one of the innovators of "documentary" fashion photography, a style which revolutionized fashion imagery and furthermore the fashion industry. Duffy's most famous photograph dates from the 1970s and is the iconic and revolutionary cover of David Bowie's album Aladdin Sane, a shot that became the defining look of Bowie's long career, and has been referred to as the Mona Lisa of pop.

You just knew you had cracked it, boy, did you know it." Celia Philo

It is 1965, and Swinging London is coming into its prime years. Amid the color and chaos is a boy sporting drainpipe jeans, a devoted fan of The Who, he looks the part in his pristine mod gear. The lead singer of the Lower Third, his name is Davie Jones. In just over 50 years, his death will be mourned by millions, his legacy the story of the greatest rock star of all time. As the drummer in Bowie's band, the Lower Third, Phil Lancaster was there as the singer's musical stripes began to show, and was witness to his early recording techniques, his first experimental forays into drug-taking, and the band's discovery of his bisexuality in shocking circumstances. In this riveting—and often very funny—memoir, Phil tells the story of life alongside the insecure yet blazingly talented boy who became Bowie, at a critical crossroad of time and place in music history. What follows is an intimate, personal and important perspective on the genesis of one of the most iconic musicians of the 20th century—one that gets under the skin of the man himself, before the personas and alter-egos masked the fascinating figure beneath them.
