 | The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust [Read More ...] Description: After flirting with heavy guitar rock ("The Man Who Sold the World") and lighter pop ("Hunky Dory"), Bowie found middle ground on Ziggy Stardust. The creation of the Ziggy Stardust persona would live on well after Bowie shed the alien skin, marking the first rock concept album by... |
 | Best of Bowie [Read More ...] Description: Though one of rock's most influential figures, David Bowie's accomplishments are pocked by some distinct ironies. His willful efforts at being a musical and visual chameleon spurred triumphs in genres as diverse as folk, glam, new wave, and electronica. Given the dizzying range a... |
 | Hunky Dory [Read More ...] Manufactured in Japan. CD sits within an exact replica of the original vinyl packaging including the inside sleeve. Packaging includes the Japanese spine sleeve. |
 | Labyrinth: From The Original Soundtrack Of The Jim Henson Film [Read More ...] Review: It's David Bowie Of Course It's Gonna Be Good:I highly, highly, highly recommend this cd/ soundtrack. It is one of the best I've ever heard. Being a David Bowie fan and having seen the movie, I loved his songs and bought it just for that, but the sound effects and all of the othe... |
 | Low [Read More ...] Description: Always up for messing with the formal expectations of rock, Bowie teamed up with Brian Eno for three frustrating but compelling albums, starting with Low. Treated instruments are claustrophobically crowded together, and Bowie's voice leaps in and out of the mix seemingly at will.... |

 | Space Oddity [Read More ...] Description: This 1969 release features David Bowie's first hit single, "Space Oddity," and sets the tone for the spacey Ziggy Stardust to come. But other than the title track, Space Oddity isn't a glam-rock album. For that phase, one must move ahead to 1970's The Man Who Sold the World. Thes... |
 | Ziggy Stardust [Read More ...] Great!:Great SACD, even the wife could tell the difference between the 2 channel SACD and the regular CD version. Asking me "Are you going to get all new CDs now?" |
 | Diamond Dogs [ECD] [Read More ...] Description: George Orwell's classic tale of totalitarianism, 1984, was the inspiration for a project that David Bowie hoped would further solidify his standing as a rock visionary. Bowie was a natural artist to helm a musical companion to Orwell's allegory, since his own music exhibits an in... |
 | Scary Monsters [Read More ...] Description: Some would argue that this is the last great Bowie album, and certainly his only great album of the '80s. While it lacked the bite of its punk brethren at the time, it appealed to some fans of that genre and to middle-of-the-road rockers as well. Muscular playing met with no-fril... |
 | Lodger [Read More ...] Review: very good:First of all, I want to say I will NOT be listening to these late 70's David Bowie albums very often (Heroes, Low, and Lodger) because for some reason, they give me incredibly severe nightmares.
But, when I don't mind having nightmares and find the courage to give the... |
 | Let's Dance [ECD] [Read More ...] Description: David Bowie returned to recording after a four-year break with this relatively clean-cut 1983 album. Although offering another definite new direction for Bowie, with Nile Rodgers of Chic helping to produce a stylish post-disco dance sound, Let's Dance is a mixed bag. Much of the ... |
 | Pin Ups [ECD] [Read More ...] Review: 'Money-maker'-:is all that comes to mind with this album. Cover albums are not only tacky, but unexpressive, mostly effortless ways for a musician to cash in on songs that as far as I'm concerned aren't theirs to perform or record (live is one thing, this is completely different... |
 | Young Americans [Read More ...] Description: 2-disc set comprising a 11-track CD album which [originally released in 1975] is an indirect product of many factors; soul music; politics, both personal and public; of downtown New York and uptown Philadelphia, and includes 3 Bonus Recordings 'John, I'm Only Dancing [Again]', 'W... |
 | David Live [Read More ...] Review: A Very Exciting Concert:In 1974 Bowie released the incredible "Diamond Dogs" album, then went on tour to promote it. This "live" document of the tour features his best-known album tracks of the previous five years, performed before an enthusiastic crowd at the Tower Theater in Up... |
 | Tonight [Read More ...] Review: Ultimate Sell-out album, no offense to Bowie:I'm a huge fan of Bowie, but his 80's habit of milking in on his fame is at its height in this album. This phase in his career brings up the question of being a fan of the musician or the music; I'm a fan of Bowie the musician and enj... |
 | The Platinum Collection [Read More ...] Description: UK pressing is packaged in a slip case. The compilation features the cream of the material the star recorded between 1969 and 1987. David Bowie remains impossible to pigeonhole - first there was Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, a White Soul Boy and a Thin White Duke. He went on to... |
