FINALLY, those pics from 87' I had promised. I already said multiple times that this was my favorite era of him. What is your favorite song from the Never let me Down album? Mines are Shining Star and the title song! . . >coloring by @davidbowiecolored . . . . #davidbowie #davidbowieedit #davidbowietribute #starman #bowieforever #davidbowieblackandwhite #davidrobertjones #1987 #1980s #bowieedit #neverletmedown #80smusic @davidbowie https://www.instagram.com/p/CSzbhnXrkGH/?utm_medium=tumblr

In the studios, David was known for being practical, efficient and decided. He didn't take long to record his songs, given the the fact that he did most of them in only one or two takes, which is something extremely rare among musicians. "I co-produced four albums with David and I would say that 95 percent of the vocals that we did were first takes, from beginning to end. I would get the level, take the tape back, we'd go through, and that's the vocal you hear. They're not perfect, they're sometimes slightly out of tune, sometimes slightly out of time, but they're real. They are emotional from him. [...] I played, there at the ending of 'Five Years,' which had a whole bunch of people almost in tears, which David was in tears at the end of 'Five Years.' He's screaming, he is feeling such emotion. It wouldn't be allowed today. It would have to be auto-tuned. It would have to be moved around. But I think that's one of the reasons that we're still talking about these albums after all this time is they're real, they're human, and they reach you here more than they do up here. And I think today a lot of the music is done more for up here than it is for down here.” Said Ken Scott, co-producer, in 2012. . . . >coloring and text by me.
