So sad to hear that John ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson passed away yesterday after a long illness. Part of three pivitol David Bowie bands between 1966 and 1973, Hutch spoke to the Strange Brew Podcast in 2016 about David’s early days with The Buzz to the end of Ziggy Stardust.
“Hutch’s story is a fabulous journey that takes him from hometown Scarborough to the Marquee Club in London 1966 to the Hammersmith Odeon farewell concert 1973 – via Tokyo, New York and Los Angeles. From a ‘buzz around London’ to worldwide hysteria… in the company of David Bowie. Jealous? Me?” Marc Riley, BBC Radio 6 Music on Bowie and Hutch, Hutch’s excellent book.
