It is worth noting that David Bowie’s birth name was also Jones. David Jones was already in use by Davey Jones of the Monkees, so David Jones became David Bowie.

Oh, that’s right. The two late Englishmen could not have been more different in their stage presence.

ONE Davy would become known as The Space Oddity,or The Thin White Duke,
in his late disco era;

while the OTHER Davy was harmless looking enough to make millions of teenage girls run to their record shops, declaring:
“I’m A Believer!!”
