The Width of A Circle

Album:The Man Who Sold The World (1970)

Lyrics & Music by David Bowie

 

Here is one of the best Bowie songs there is. The song was transcribed

listening to the live versions

from "David Live" and "Ziggy Stardust-The Motion Picture" but I think

it's pretty much the same to the

album version. If there is anyone interested in transcribing the

solos, please let me know.
