Available now to purchase is the brand new book DAVID BOWIE IN HUNGER CITY, NEW YORK 1974 from Cygnet Committee.
This second 40-page limited edition fan-published book focuses on the two dates at Madison Square Garden on 19th and 20th July 1974.
David Bowie's all-singing, all-dancing, all-hydraulic-lifting Year of the Diamond Dogs show was arguably the most elaborate and theatrical of his career. And even now, 40 years later, the tour retains its air of fascination. 'Bowie in Hunger City' tells the full story of what happened when Bowie's futuristic rock theatre revue rolled into New York City in July 1974.
Full details, purchasing information and photo art print-sets can be found at the cygnetcommittee.co.uk website.
Cygnet Committee are now on Twitter. Please follow them at @Cygnetcomuk for news, updates and all that jazz.
