      As everybody knows by know, pop-rock legend David Bowie has died.

      It's the worst loss for the music world since John Lennon was murdered, I reckon.

      Yesterday I did a blog about my personal remembrances of discovering Bowie as a teen in the seventies.

      Now here's my top 20 Bowie tunes from that decade.
