David Bowie 'struggled for years' to tell the story of Ziggy Stardust guitarist Mick Ronson, says filmmaker

A British filmmaker is hoping a new documentary on the life of late guitarist Mick Ronson will shed light on the seemingly forgotten artist who helped David Bowie achieve superstardom. Ronson died of liver cancer at age 46 in 1993.

Bowie, who would later succumb to the same illness in 2016 at age 69, provided voice-over commentary on the life of his beloved collaborator and sidekick before his passing, which can be heard in Jon Brewer’s film “Beside Bowie.”

Brewer, a close friend of both artists, told Fox News Bowie struggled with the loss of Ronson, whose contributions to music remained uncelebrated despite his work with Morrissey, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Mott the Hoople and most notably, Bowie’s band Spiders From Mars.
