Birdie, who was orphaned at the age of 10, has lived a very sheltered life out on the island, and was home-schooled by her overly strict grandmother. Serious Moonlight follows Birdie Lindberg, an 18-year old teen, who lives with her grandfather on Bainbridge Island, just outside of Seattle. I have yet to read a Jenn Bennett book that didn’t leave me with a smile on my face and her latest book, Serious Moonlight, was no exception. Her stories are always so heartfelt and filled with wonderful characters in relatable situations, as well as a strong focus on family and friendships. Jenn Bennett has quickly become one of my favorite YA contemporary authors.

1, was Ashes To Ashes.Īnd while Bowie played just one track, a suitably theatrical Cracked Actor from the Ziggy-Aladdin zenith of his glam rock period, fans of his older material were rewarded with Life On Mars?, Sorrow, a cover of The Velvet Underground's White Light/White Heat and a smattering of tracks - Fame, Young Americans, Golden Years and Station To Station - from his first incarnation as a white soul man in the Seventies.ĭirected by David Mallett - and with the added bonus of the Ricochet documentary (filmed during Serious Moonlight dates in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Singapore) - this DVD frames one of pop's greatest artists in his prime. Another high point, and another relatively recent UK No. The title track had been a chart topping single on both sides of the Atlantic while China Girl, also included, only narrowly missed out on the No.1 spot in Britain. Inspired by a new nightclub scene that was sweeping all before it in London and New York, Bowie aired a number of songs from the Let's Dance album. At one point during this show, he kicked a giant inflatable globe around the stage.
On the other, as one of the first performers to grasp the potential of the pop video, he also cut a colourful, striking figure. On one hand, he was singing as well as ever. Wearing a baggy suit, Bowie used the live platform to remind fans of his pedigree, both vocally and visually. The sold out Serious Moonlight tour saw Bowie backed by his funkiest band to date with guitarist Earl Slick and Chic drummer Tony Thompson aided by the soulful Borneo Horns.
Serious moonlight update#
The Let's Dance album, produced by Chic's Nile Rodgers, had seen him update the blue-eyed soul styles originally explored on 1975's Young Americans and, by the time he took his show on the road once more, the singer had re-immersed himself in modern dance. Having been one of the few members of the old musical aristocracy to survive the onslaught of punk and disco - thanks to his ground-breaking Low and ?Heroes? albums - Bowie was edging back towards the pop mainstream by 1983. This DVD - recorded at the Pacific National Exhibition Coliseum in Vancouver, Canada - captures David Bowie and his early Eighties touring band at their best, touching on material from the superstar's then recent Let's Dance and Scary Monsters albums but also encompassing songs, such as Rebel Rebel, Cracked Actor and Space Oddity, from much earlier in his illustrious career. For David Bowie, 1983's Serious Moonlight tour provoked a worldwide outbreak of Bowiemania, with fan scenes that harked back to the levels of hysteria that had greeted his Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane personas a decade earlier
