“I wanto to take a moment and just note the passing of my good friend David Bowie. David, not that many people know, but he supported our music way, way, way back at the very , very beginning, 1973. He rang me up and I visited him down in Philly where he was making the Young Americans record. He covered some of my music, “Hard to be a saint in the city” and “Growin’up”, and he was a big supporter of ours. I took the Greyhound bus down to Philadelphia, that’s how early on it was.
Anyway, we’re thinking of him”.
