Knockouts from the past…
11 July 2019
DAVID BOWIE released his breakthrough single SPACE ODDITY this day 50 years ago,
on 11 July 1969. It was specifically planned to be out just before the first moon landing,
on 20 July, but it only became a massive hit when it was re-released later in the year in the UK (but not until 1973 in the US). The song was also the opening track of his 2nd self-titled longplayer. Happy birthday Major Tom…
