Trying to fill in holes: what would #Tricky have been doing in 1994 or earlier so he would be known to someone like Bowie? Like, would it primarily be his work with #MassiveAttack, or were the couple singles he released prior to Maxinquaye pretty big?
@buffyleigh Bowie was always very good at sniffing out the next thing before it had become the next thing, so I'd imagine that by the early '80s he was checking out what was starting to come out of Bristol.

@n69n @theotherbrook  That's marvelous. And I almost bought one of those Bowie stylophones! They were still up in his shop for a couple years after he left us, I think!
