Why is Bowie given so much praise when it was 90% Eno's doing?

Why is Bowie given so much praise when it was 90% Eno's doing?

Because it wasn't, but when I heard someone say that the for first time it shocked me too so I understand your compulsion to post about it.

Everybody knows that

Bowie owes a lot to his fellow musicians. Mick Ronson and Mike Garson contributed as much to his unique sound as he did.

But he is still special. He's definitely not a hack. He's a great collaborator.

Countless artists and musicians he's worked with have praised him and the way he works and kept wanting to collaborate. That fact that people like Eno and Fripp hold him in such high regard should tell you all you need to know.

Don't forget Bowie met Mott the Hoople and sat down and wrote All the Young Dudes for them in half an hour.
>>
because he made quality shit before that album and ain't nobody heard of brian eno
