'Black Star' was his last album....the 'Lazarus' vid was released about three days before he died.....

Yep, no doubt it will make money for his heirs and be lauded even if it is far inferior to previous works.....

I don't find it all that inferior, as Bowie was always reinventing himself anew.....there are gems to be had from each of these eras too....

Nor do I, as I haven't had enough time to give it a proper listen, I'm just saying.....

My favorite.  I don't know why.  There's something about that song.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLnPd7lzT4g

He died when nobody knew that he was sick.  He created to the end.  What a man.  I haven't gotten the guts up to watch Lazarus.  I know I will have to, but it will be hard.

He has been all over public radio all day.  The best I've heard is from Canada.  Ir'a mostly interviews.  It might be worth a listen to you.  http://www.cbc.ca/radio/q/a-q-tribute-to-david-bowie-1947-2016-1.3398232/remembering-david-bowie-1947-2016-1.3398234
