Yes, I purchased this CD. And I have most of the CDs an LPs these titles came from. I have been a Bowie fan since the late 60s, after I heard 12-string guitar opening to Space Oddity, I was hooked. I've read some of the reviews here about Bowie's longevity, peaking in the 80s, his influence on many music forms. I don't disagree with any of it. However, I must point out that the mere quantity and difference in his music is what keeps him fresh to new audiences today. His music can be re-discovered and enjoyed by many. I look at his overall accomplishment in composing and assembling his many recordings using some of the best musicians available to make it happen. His work in the 21st Century, HEATHEN and REALITY are very interesting and rank high in my regard and this is a Ziggy/Aladin Sane/Diamond Dogs diehard speaking. Given any mood, you will find a Bowie recording to reflect it. And that what Bowie really offers is a reflection of the kind of music at given point in time. He did not invent Punk, Plastic-Soul, Techno, etc, but he mirrors these genres and provides his take on it. That is what is most impressive, in addition to his honesty and good humor. For example, I'm not gay, yet I get a big kick out of songs like Queen Bitch just as I did with some of Lou Reed's early tunes. Honesty speaks to everybody. Great talent makes is a good listen.Free Music Review: OK but nothing great
Hit: 2 Stars
I'm always amazed when people proclaim the greatness of Bowie. The truth is, no matter how innovative he was at the time/now and how great his voice is(and it really is), his stuff is mostly boring and weird. That said, Ashes to ashes and Loving the Alien are two of the best tracks I've ever heard.

I was born a Formula 1 fan. NASCAR is good, INDY IRL is good, but formula 1 Grand Prix is the ultimate form of racing. Jim Clark, the greatest drive of all time, died in a crash at the German Grand Prix on my 15th birthday April 7th 1968. Every year since then I watch the movie "Grand Prix" just to get a short glimps of him and remember. This book is a collection of memories others have of this great man.
