David Bowie
A consummate musical chameleon, David Bowie has been a folksinger, androgyne, alien, decadent, blue-eyed soul man, art-rocker and a modern pop star, with each persona spawning a new league of imitators. Though he's achieved varying degrees of success is ongoing experimentations and genre hopping, Bowie’s place in history is secure: This is a man who did for pretensions what Jimi Hendrix did for electric guitar.
