David Bowie

In this captivating live performance from July 29, 1997, at the Théâtre Antique de Fourvière in Lyon, France, David Bowie showcases his innovative spirit during the 'Earthling' tour. Just prior to this concert, Bowie released the ambitious 'Outside' album in 1993, which is notable for its avant-garde approach and has been described as a concept album about art, violence, and the relationship between the two. This album marked a significant return to form for Bowie, influencing the direction of rock music in the '90s with its blend of electronic and industrial sounds. Bowie's presence in this recording is electric, further accentuated by his exploration of themes of alienation and identity, mirroring the artistic depths he ventured into with 'Outside.' It's fascinating to witness how Bowie continuously reinvented himself, making each performance a unique exploration, both sonically and thematically.
