David Bowie for pedagogical yumminess
I always felt Bowie was wonderful to play along with to learn or teach guitar and bass. Easy chords, easy rhythms, but quirky and fun songs that could be approached in many ways. Now I'm practicing drums and find once again...Bowie fits the bill all too well. Simple enough to follow, chugging patterns, and yet quirky enough to introduce accents and breaks to keep it moving. Just sayin'.

Re: David Bowie for pedagogical yumminess
You're right about that, Roy. Also The Cure fits the bill for simple creative arrangements. I didn't notice until I watched them on Palladia. I was loving the guitar player. Simple yet awesomely unique riffs.
