David Bowie

On June 15, 2002, David Bowie performed 'Slow Burn' during the 'Live By Request' session at Sony Music Studios in New York. This was a particularly exciting period for Bowie, as he had just released the album 'Heathen' a few months earlier in May 2002. 'Heathen' marked his return after a four-year hiatus from studio albums and showcased a sound that blended his classic influences with a fresh, contemporary edge. It's interesting to note that during this performance, Bowie engaged with his audience in a unique way, taking questions and truly connecting with fans. This live session not only highlights the tracks from the new album but also reflects Bowie's ability to evolve and remain relevant in a changing musical landscape. The energy and intimacy of the venue made this recording a memorable demonstration of his enduring brilliance.
