	Description:		The following interview was conducted days before David Bowie's death at 69. David Bowie was 19 when he met producer Tony Visconti. In 2016, Bowie released his experimental-jazz-flecked studio album, Blackstar. Visconti co-produced it, just as he had produced dozens of the rock icon's records over the course of their more than forty year creative relationship. And since Bowie himself had all but sworn off press, it often fell to Visconti to explicate the processes and the experiments that resulted in latter day masterpieces like The Next Day and the record, Blackstar. Tony Visconti reflects on the influence of Mick Ronson, Jack Bruce, Marc Bolan, digital production, and Visconti's relationship with his "lead singer," David Bowie in this podcast from the 2016 archives.
