David Bowie's Longtime Producer: 'Blackstar' was "His Parting Gift"
David Bowie's longtime producer, Tony Visconti, has posted a tribute to the musical legend following his tragic passing at the age of 69 after an 18-month battle with cancer.
Unlike many other reactions to Bowie's death, Visconti, the 71-year-old artist/producer who first worked with Bowie on 1969's Space Oddity, framed his tribute within the context of Bowie's towering discography. For Visconti, Bowie's just-released new album ★ (Blackstar) was a proper farewell.
