Mr.Bowie's twenty-fourth studio set...
one I bought the day after he died because I never got round to it previously(not because he died)...
this one has been played at least twice a week in my car since his death and is my second favourite of
his after "lodger"...
I don't think ballad would ever be the right word for a David Bowie song, but if it was, this album has a
lot of them...
most unusual track on here, not unusual for him, just that it doesn't fit with the sound of the rest of the album
is "Gemini spaceship"...which has a Kraut Rock feel happening and harks back to some of his late 1970s sounds...
best track for me is the lovely melodious "everyone says hi" which is simply beautiful...
all up, a very good album IMO

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
