David Bowie was famously generous with collaborations. He was also famously uninterested in playing along for the sake of prestige. He worked across eras and genres with ease, from Queen to Bing Crosby to Nile Rodgers, but star power alone never earned an automatic yes. If Bowie wasn't feeling an artistic impulse to collab, he declined (albeit, one time, for his mom) without apology.
