Overrated? Genius?
Genius.
Greater or lesser than the sum of his phases: Newley phase, Dylan phase, glam phase, Soul phase, Berlin phase, mainstream 80's, etc.,
What are you talking about?
Only as good as his collaborators: Eno, Visconti, Slick, Ronson, Alomar, Soupy Sales' kids, etc.,
What are you talking about?
Just an opportunist constantly jumping trends or a leader setting trends?
Definitely a pioneer.
a pop star in rock star clothing?
Surely some mistake.
Discuss.
Yes of couse Bowie is a genius. Jim Bowie. He invented the Bowie knife you know.
