Bowieography

I'm Gaz, and I've been an admirer of David Bowie's music since the 1970s. This blog brings together (nearly) all the animated screen caps I made for my Tumblr blogs, Bowieography and (back in the day) Bowieologist, here conveniently grouped together by their individual titles. Most of the official promo videos are represented, along with Bowie's acting roles and several live performances. There has been quite a lot of material that I haven't been able to track down, but I won't tell you what it is in the hope that you won't notice.
