TIN MACHINE "tin machine" ,cd 1989
eighteenth studio set for Mr Bowie...
this time as part of a band...
desperate to shed the image of 'pop star' after his commercially successful
1980s from Lets Dance thru Never Let Me Down Bowie released this album that
was another re-invention in style...
it was heavy for the most part, what we'd probably consider alt-rock nowadays with
some hints of grunge...once again, the man was ahead of his time but no one understood it...
this was not the Bowie the new fans who grew up on "modern love", "china girl" and "lets dance"
wanted to hear and thus their confusion ended with a dud album that at the time became the worst
seller of his career, this feat was only outdone with Tin Machine-2 which sold even less...
a cover of Lennon's "working class hero" on here and its pretty bad...as is most of the album...
fourteen tracks on here, only three maybe four that I like...
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
