Free Music Notes for Best of David Bowie
Free Music Review: Fame and Fashion
Hit: 5 Stars
David Bowie is one of my top ten favourite singers of all time.
He was a superstar of the 70s and 80s with his magnifficent combination of Rock, Pop, Glam Rock, Art Rock, Industrial Rock and Space Rock.
This album showcases his best known hits.
The poetry of the lyrics is brilliant-and the music astronomical .
It begins with that wonderful space fantasy Space Oddity (1969). Remember this was the year that Neil Armstrong became the first man on the moon!
Changes (1972) outlines the strain of rapid change while pointing out its inevitability.
What follows is the wonderful disco funk of Suffragette City (1976), the superb The Jean Genie, Rebel Rebel (1974), slight transition from hard rock to cool funk with Young Americans (1975 and the hypnotizing Fame (1975), Golden Years (1975), the rhythmic Heroes (1977) which is classic Bowie. One of my alltime, favourites is Ashes to Ashes (1980) a type of reminiscence of Bowies career and life up to then with the central theme a major one of the 80's:A wake up to reality and a resolve to turn ones back on the drugs and decadence of the preceding years.The disco beat of Fashion (1980) contains a powerful social commentary.
Then there is the famous and successful collaboration between Bowie and Queen....Under Pressure (1981), The 80's disco of Lets Dance (1983) ,China Girl(1983) and another favourite of mine Modern Love (1983) shows how Bowie adapted to new eras in music without losing any of his talent, the superb Blue Jean (1984) and Modern Love (1983)which shows how Bowie adapted to new eras in music without losing any of his talent
The collaboration with Mick Jagger Dancing In The Street (1985) is followed by This Is Not America and I'm Afraid of Americans.
