“I am a D.J., I am what I play. Can’t turn around no, can’t turn around.”

During his time living in the city, David Bowie was known to browse the vinyl bins in record stores around his neighborhood. There are dozens of indie record stores in Brooklyn, so this Record Store Day Bowie is making his rounds.

“One weekend this past February I noticed the forecast for NYC was in the 70s so I hopped a flight from the Second City. With Bowie as my inspiration I set off on a morning walk through SoHo to Washington Square park, listening to Young Americans, stopping at his favorite haunts and digging through record crates, when I came along the gate illusion by Scott VanderVoort at 42nd Bond St. The way it watched over passers by, dog walkers and businessmen headed to work, seemed to emulate his spirit in the city. Like he once said ‘I’ve lived in New York longer than I’ve lived anywhere else. It’s amazing. I am a New Yorker,’ and nowhere is his spirit more felt than New York City, it still feels like David Bowie is here.” — @joshuamellin

David Bowie, 1971, in front of a billboard advertisement for Peter Noone’s cover of “Oh! You Pretty Things,” on which David also played piano. It was released well before Bowie’s own version on Hunky Dory, and reached #12 on the UK singles chart.
