Rare Photos Of 20-Year-Old David Bowie Before Stardom

by Zack Walkter

Published August 28, 2017

The series also includes the photo that would become the cover of David Bowie: a simple headshot of the singer in a tweed coat. The image brilliantly illuminates the singer’s heterochromatic blue and green eyes, sealing Bowie’s status as an international heartthrob.

While the album failed to achieve the astounding commercial success of his later works, it was a pivotal moment: it represented Bowie’s first transformation, from small-town music man to boundary-pushing rock idol.

“I don’t remember why I took those photos, probably because I was the only one he knew with a studio and camera,” Fearnley recalls in the book. “It’s great that after all this time, these would be dusted off.”

Bowie Unseen is published by ACC Editions.
