Music icon David Bowie narrates this unprecedented
celebration of the life and works of guitar virtuoso Mick Ronson - a rock hero
virtually unknown despite his direct contribution and involvement in countless
compositions, lyrics and recordings that changed the face of music forever. His
humble beginnings in Hull, England underpinned the values and modest,
unpretentious personality of Mick Ronson, who worked with the city's council
while he pursued his craft with consummate dedication. Soon word of his talent
reached David Bowie, who grabbed at the chance to work with Ronson, in what would
become a career-long association, alongside collaborations with other greats
such as Bob Dylan, Ian Hunter, Lulu and Lou Reed. Sadly in 1993, while working
on a solo album, Ronson passed away before receiving the recognition he so
richly deserved or before taking that final bow. Now, with unprecedented access
to archival backstage footage - never before released - and iconic imagery from
superstar photographer Mick Rock, this fascinating and at times controversial
special reveals the ultimate authentic chronicle of the career of a cornerstone
of rock.
