1972 16 TRKS (5 x bonus tracks) ('90 issue) – I also have a MiniDisc of this version.

So, I am fairly strong with his releases from “Space Oddity” aka “Man of Music, Man of Words” up to “Never Let Me Down”. “Low” is the definite favorite. The poor cousins? “Stage” or “Tonight”?

And, yes = there are still a few things I would like to add to this collection: a UK 45 of “DJ”, for instance. A UK 45 of “Jean Genie”. And so forth.

Thanks for reading the Bowie list this week.

On Monday, we return to our regular non-Bowie programming.

David Bowie #1

10-20-08 David Bowie week – David Bowie #1

I have never been a David Bowie ‘obsessive’ – but…his career spans 5 decades. I got onto his work about the time of “Ziggy Stardust”, but nothing again until “Station to Station”.
