And George's "All Things Must Pass". But of course I do love "Imagine". Who cannot love that masterpiece.

I am 62 i never missed a single bowie tour since 1972. Including with trent reznor and tin machiine. Probably saw him 60 + times. I used to see him in Detroit and then Cleveland. Snook out of my bedroom window and hitchhiked from Toledo to Detroit to see him in 1973 when I was 15. I still have my 1990 sound and vision t shirt.

It makes me immeasurably happy that Bowie content is still being put out

Hi Brian. I was in the crowd there, too. Close to the front with free tickets. Because I worked at Hollywood East/Boulevard. He held a press conference in Hollywood East in the afternoon and I got to sit down and have a beer with him in a pause in the proceedings.. Just the two of us! After the concert he held an end of tour party in Hollywood Boulevard (Elizabeth House) - I was one of the management team organising the event. He was given a big Chocolate cake, which got put on a barstool. He proceeded to smash it in half with a Katana. Chocolate went flying everywhere. Everybody was high as a kite.

If i wrote a hit song and wanted a global superstar to cover it....it would be Bowie every time. Not only did he treat Imagine with the respect it deserves, deep down he knew, as John did, that the world would never live as one. In fact, just the opposite .

His finest 6 minutes

This concert should be released on dvd. The Vancouver one had bad picture due to videotape. This is crystal clear

Lennon is my favourite artist, along with the Beatles, also Bob Dylan. I love Bowie's 2 classic early '70s albums, Hunky Dory and Ziggy Stardust. His songwriting on these 2 albums is brilliant. He also produced Raw Power by Iggy and the Stooges and Lou Reed's classic Transformer album with Mick Ronson around the same time, aswell as Mott The Hoople's All The Young Dudes. A very creative time for Bowie. Incredible.
