8. "The Buddha Of Suburbia"
14/01/2019 Duration: 01h43minContinuing our discussion of all things David Bowie, we read the book AND watched the BBC TV adaptation AND listened to the not-really-soundtrack album of Hanif Kureishi's The Buddha Of Suburbia! Bowie's album based on the soundtrack he wrote for the TV series is one of the least-heard works in his catalog. So, was all this work worth it? Yes, mostly! Give a listen!
