David Bowie - Spiders from Mars/Interviews - New Music

David Robert Jones was vorn in Brixton, London on 8 January 1947. He lived with his parents until he was 18. During a fight over a girl, Bowie's friend George Underwood punched him in the eye. Doctors could not fully repair the damage, leaving his pupil permanently dilated. The pair remained good friends and Underwood went on to do artwork for Bowie's early albums.
