Any Day Now is an in-depth and highly visual chronology charting the early life and career of one of music s all-time greatest icons: David Bowie. This book is the ultimate fan guide for David Bowie's most devoted followers. Packed with hundreds of interviews and images, Any Day Now offers a detailed year-by-year account of Bowie's life — from his birth in postwar London in 1947 to his departure from the UK in 1974. With a wealth of new information and with each page featuring rare photographs, news clippings and memorabilia, the book also includes the most concise listing of early Bowie performances ever published. Author Kevin Cann unravels many of the myths that have surrounded Bowie s early career in this encyclopaedic reference that will fascinate and entertain. Cann has worked on reissues of Bowie's back catalogues as well as anniversary releases of his albums. His role as a Bowie archivist for nearly 20 years has allowed him to amass extremely rare photographs and memorabilia, which are combined with interviews with a hundred of Bowie's friends and associates. Through his dedicated research and its fascinating results, Cann has developed a reputation as one of Bowie's greatest and most trustworthy biographers. With the Victoria and Albert Museum's unprecedented, career-spanning retrospective, «David Bowie» is underway and Bowie's newest album The Next Day having shot straight up to number one on the music charts, now is the perfect time for fans to engross themselves in the best David Bowie book currently available. Author Kevin Cann has worked closely with the V&A in producing the «David Bowie is» exhibition, meaning the same standard of care and prestige put into the exhibition has been put into this book as well. In fact, many of the rare photos on show at the V&A were first seen in Any Day Now.
