: Recollections of a Friendship with David Bowie, Edward Bell, Unicorn Edward Bell’s first encounter with David Bowie was in 1980, at a private viewing for Bell’s first exhibition, a collection of large paintings of people on the London scene. This is an unauthorized biography and Davis didn’t interview his subject; he draws on Nicks’s own writings, his access to her friends and associates, and published material. Indeed, the musician, who had a reputation for being difficult, cited DeCurtis as the only critic he got on with. Reed’s excesses, his sex life, his drug use, instances of cruelty that he lived to regret, are all here. Sting: From Northern Skies to Fields of Gold, Paul Carr, Reaktion Books This biography isn’t an all-encompassing look at the life of Gordon Sumner.
