I just drove by this house tonight, after having wanted to find it for a couple of years. The place is so creepy. One small correction: he lived there for a few months in 1975 (not '76 and '77), while he was recording "Station to Station" at Cherokee Studios. There are some crazy stories about that house being haunted/possessed.

@SirHatchporch yes..you're right..my dates were wrong..i was just winging it to camera.....it took me a while to find that house too...it's very easy to imagine david at that time living there,while elton john was living a whole other way up in one of the villas round the corner in chateau marmont...yet both of them painfully wired on cocaine.

Nick Roeg was/is one of my fav Directors. TMWFTE has The best editing in a film ever too. Forget the over rated Mary Xmas... This was Bowies finest Hour. Oops.. rambling. Odd House!!! Thanks MC
