Celebrating David Bowie with guest Ken Scott

Mark presents a feast of music and celebrates the life and career of David Bowie in the company of guest Ken Scott, co-producer of David's albums Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane.

Mark Radcliffe presents solo, with a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

As part of 6 Music's 'Bowie Forever' season marking the 10th anniversary of his passing, Mark celebrates the life, career and ongoing influence of pioneering and legendary music artist David Bowie.

Mark talks to producer and engineer Ken Scott about his work with David. Ken co-produced albums with David including Hunky Dory, Aladdin Sane and The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Before co-producing, Ken had worked as a sound engineer on some David's previous records such as Space Oddity. He also worked with The Beatles at Abbey Road, as well as with a wide range of other artists.

Mark also reflects on his own experiences meeting and interviewing David and plays a selection of his favourite Bowie tracks.

Also on the show... 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8700 interconnected songs.

There’s also the chance to take part in ‘Tea Time Theme Time’, guessing the link between three top tunes.

With a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.

Produced in Salford by Audio Always for BBC Radio 6 Music
