David Bowie would’ve been 75 today

It’s too bad he didn’t live as long as his contemporaries, especially given their proclivity to just flog a dead horse, e.g. Rolling Stones, The Who. I also know what I’m writing will be blasphemy, but David didn’t end his career with a good album. Blackstar is disappointing after The Next Day and what else he did with Tony Visconti in the new century. In his defense though, David was willing to take chances on trying something different when he was motivated, so some of the dislike is on me. I do like to think these crappy pandemic times would’ve served as inspiration for him to do newer material to reflect the somber move and he could’ve surprised us with something inspirational.
