“Bowie relaxes on the river in Bangkok at the end of the tour. We got up at 03:00 so that a film crew could follow David for the day, discovering older areas of the city as part of the Ricochet documentary. After the show, hotel and plane confines of the tour, it enabled me to spend an unusual number of hours in daylight with David as he relaxed, visiting temples and families’ houses along the course of the river.” – Denis O’REGAN
“The shot was made outside Earl Slick’s house in Los Angeles. Slick had invited David to his home to meet his family. And, as we walked out, David – very briefly back in the guise of David Bowie – spontaneously jumped behind our car and adopted the pose of the driver of an invisible car. This was so typical of the mime artist that had overwhelmed my senses when he appeared as Ziggy Stardust in 1973 at The Hammersmith Odeon.” – Denis O’REGAN
“David as he had never been seen before 1983, clowning around backstage, simply being himself.
“The make-up artist’s daughter had celebrated her birthday – and David, in his pre-show dressing grown, grabbed the balloons for a quick silly picture.
"It illustrates how at ease he felt with me photographing him, and also his love of laughing and his ability to laugh at himself. When I first met him, I was very surprised at how far removed he was from the ice-cool persona of the Thin White Duke from his previous tour, in 1978.” – Denis O’REGAN
