David Bowie - Aladdin Sane (1973)
Here it is! Not my favourite Bowie record by any stretch but definitely in my most important records of all time collection.
commentsHere it is! Not my favourite Bowie record by any stretch but definitely in my most important records of all time collection.
commentsThe themes were: Black, White, Colour(s).
commentsFor me THE high water mark of Bowie’s whole career. The whole album is basically all reflex in my brain. I know every note, every nuance, every lyric.
commentsThere’s possibly nothing in my entire collection that is as ageless as this masterpiece. The fact that my son Peter listened to this in his car on his wedding day speaks volumes.
commentsI’ve waited what seems like an eternity to play this. I’ve just returned from a week away and within the first hour of being home I feel a real anticipation that turns into necessity, to get on with playing Bowie’s second record.
commentsI’m breaking out the Bowie box sets this February. It’s wall-to-wall studio Bowie records only this month - starting with this, his first “proper” album through to 1980’s “Scary Monsters”.
commentsOk I admit it, I dabbled with New Age music! Luckily it was a fleeting indiscretion that only came about from exposure to a couple of Windham Hill samplers.
commentsPurchased the day of re-release from HMV in London during 2016, this remastered/re-jigged vinyl compilation of early live Zeppelin recordings just keeps on giving.
commentsThis record, just released a matter of days ago, has really caught my fancy. After hearing her interviewed and each track reviewed on a recent “All Songs Considered” podcast, it was top of my list to give a proper listen.
commentsA placebo is a substance that has no therapeutic effect or a measure designed merely to humour or placate someone. Placebo, the band, are more often than not treated similarly by the music press.
