Free Music Review: More like a water-treading album...
Hit: 4 Stars
... has said the "man" himself about A Lad Insane, the second glam album from rock cameo David Bowie, and while some will qualify it as his best glam-era offering, I would tend to agree with Bowie. David Bowie was a complex and versatil artist, doing the same thing twice never really seized him. While he still enjoyed surfing on the glory of his persona Ziggy Stardust, some part of him had already said everything it had to say about rock n roll, and it shows on the album. While EVERY song here is a good song all in all, we can feel that they were written quickly, on the road. That makes the album sound rushed and somewhat redondant. But anyway, at the time Bowie couldn't get something bad from his pen, so he threw us plenty of little classics for our ziggy-angry ears.
I'll say it again. Every song is cool. The road inspired him great rockers like Watch that man, The Jean Genie, Cracked Actor, Panic In Detroit and the rolling stones cover Let Spend The Night Together wich are all not quiet revolutionary, but 100% effective. The real revolutions on this album are the hypnotic closer Lady Grinning Soul where he sings like the queen of the dragqueens (maybe the most mannered and sweet male vocals ever), the piano on Alladin Sane and the creepy majesty of Time
Overall, I would sure recommend this album, but my point of vue is that on Ziggy Stardust, the man was more into it.
Aladdin Sane Poster
The second most important moment in Bowie's glam period, Aladdin Sane is full of smart, cutting-edge songs that hold up decades later as classic moments in rock. Standout tracks include "Panic in Detroit," with Mick Ronson's screaming guitars and Mick Woodmansey's urgent drumming; "Watch that Man," a piano-driven, rollicking number perfect for the Bowie strut; the lascivious and sweaty "Cracked Actor"; the punky "Jean Genie"; and a perfectly raucous cover of "Let's Spend the Night Together." "Time" hearkens back to the theatrics of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, while "Drive in Saturday," "The Prettiest Star," and "Lady Grinning Soul" serve as precursors to Bowie's "plastic soul" sounds that came later in the '70s. Aladdin Sane is even more impressive when considering that the same year this album was made, Bowie was also working with artists like Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, producing some of their most heralded works (the Stooges' Raw Power and Reed's Transformer). --Lorry FlemingAlternative Rock Music CDs
