Vous êtes réellement un public merveilleux, ce soir, et je vous remercie tous (...) De tous les shows de cette tournée, c'est de celui ci dont on se souviendra le plus longtemps parce que... non seulement c'est le dernier concert de la tournée, mais aussi le dernier show à jamais.
— David Bowie - Ziggy 3 juillet 1973

L'année 2007 sera riche en témoignages, après Visconti c'est un autre ancien qui va nous raconter Bowie en 1973, GEOFF MacCORMACK choriste pendant 3 ans.

"During the early part of 1973, I had two huge strokes of luck and good fortune.

Firstly, while working in a London office I got a call from a childhood friend called David Jones. David Jones was now David Bowie and he invited me to join his band, The Spiders, as a backing vocalist and percussionist, for a tour of the USA, Japan and the UK.

The second piece of luck was that David had a fear of flying. Thus we would have to travel the thousands of miles around the world by ship, train and road.

At the end of the tour David, surprisingly, announced his retirement. Nevertheless I stayed with him for another two years, travelling and working on other tours - Diamond Dogs and Young Americans - and six albums, from Aladdin Sane to Station to Station.

From Station To Station is the story of those three amazing years, together with my previously unpublished photographs of Bowie at work and at play."
