Db Writes A Few Words For Bowienet

To be right in that photograph…

Most of you have no doubt already seen the great Timothy Greenfield-Sanders photo above of Antony Hegarty relaxing with a few friends after his show the Antony and the Johnsons show at Carnegie Hall on Thursday night.

The handsome chap on the far right in the shot has written a few words exclusively for BowieNet about the photograph…

Timothy Greenfield-Sanders is a great pal of Lou‘s and has taken some of the finest ‘downtown’ photos in the last twenty years. He recently did a book on porno stars but I never got my free copy so I can’t tell you what it’s like. LOL.

Meeting Jimmy Scott was just the best. He’s got to be eighty and still rockin’, well, actually, torch songing and I looked around during the photo thinking how it wasn’t often that you got three generations of singers in one photo. That’s a very cool picture. – db”

Thanx for that, David. It truly is a great shot.
