David Bowie
Yvette Horner's Piano Cover of David Bowie's Space Oddity
In June 1994, David Bowie was enjoying a resurgence in his career, following the release of 'The Buddha of Suburbia' in 1993, which showcased his eclectic sound and narrative lyricism. This album was a departure from traditional rock, incorporating elements of funk, jazz, and electronic styles, reflecting Bowie's ever-evolving artistry. Interestingly, 'The Buddha of Suburbia' was inspired by a British television series of the same name and highlighted his knack for infusing everyday narratives with his distinctive flair. During this time, Bowie was also gearing up for the 'Outside' album, set to release in 1993, pushing boundaries of art rock and theatrical presentation. The live recording from INA captures the essence of Bowie's influence, as Yvette Horner pays homage to his iconic song 'Space Oddity'—a testament to how Bowie's work continues to resonate and inspire musicians, even in diverse genres.
