On Hunky Dory:

“This was the first Bowie album I got, and I listened to it over and over. I was in my mid-twenties, living in the Hollywood Hills, writing for skateboard magazines like Big Brother. They were the only ones that would let me do an article on self-defense equipment. The best thing about Bowie, and the Beatles, are the non-hits.”
