The Next Day

And the thing is, before he died, he released two albums.

One was The Next Day.

Yes.

And I think that is one of his...

yeah

Liam was just hilarious.

I think he got door stopped the next day and, you know, BBC was saying how unprofessional to be drunk in front of, you know, and Liam's kind of funny response was, yeah, he was drunk, but so were the audience.

What's the problem? But yeah, it was them at a kind of chaotic time.

Four out of five.

Another point that Kitty does make in her review of the album there is that when Bloodsports came out, it was somewhat overshadowed by David Bowie announcing The Next Day, his first album in 10 years.

And Night Thoughts ended up being released two weeks after David Bowie passed away.

It is, was, and always will be inescapable.

And it didn't turn up on the Friday, nor the Saturday, nor the Monday.

The Monday being the day we heard that David Bowie had passed away.

And my copy of Blackstar arrived the next day.

My first listen to Blackstar was the day after his passing, which, yeah, that's definitely one for another episode, I think.

Yeah.

And then of course, uh, you know, uh, going up to Station to Station, and then coming back and, and recording on Bowie's the next day, and Heathen and, you know, I, I, and I think he was probably on stage when David had his heart attack as well, you know, which was, you know, a shock to everybody.

Um, and, and, and then of course, Double Fantasy, John Lennon-

Yeah

Uh, it was insane.

So on a Sunday night, on, on February 9, 1964, we see The Beatles.

The next day at school, it was, it was chaos.

Yeah.
