Free Music Review: Best Bowie Ever
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is an absolute gem. I've never been the biggest Bowie fan, but have always been looking for a good live album from him. This production is increadible from top to bottom. The sound quality is phenomenal with just the right amount of crowd noise and quality vocal/instrumental mixing. Also, the set list cannot be beat. All the quality Bowie tunes including the best tracks that you don't hear every day on your local classic rock radio. Even the classics, with solid guitar solos, jams, and lyrical variations, are a big improvement from the original recordings. Overall, this album is a must have for any classic rock fan regardless of whether or not you're a huge Bowie enthusiast.Free Music Review: Great sound and packaging
Hit: 5 Stars
The product description makes no mention of the fact that this is a mini-box set - just 1 CD, but cool repro postcards, a mini-poster, and a nice booklet, all well-designed.
This does soften the blow of the price tag in my opinion.
The audio quality is greatly improved over any version you may have heard in the past; as for the performances, there's a reason this gig is legendary.
Recommended.
Free Music Review: Ziggy Plays Guitar
Hit: 5 Stars
Much better than the soundtrack live album from Ziggy Stardust The motion Picture, the band sounds raw and rocking. Mick Ronson was brilliant of course. I used to have the widely available bootleg of this on LP. This package comes with some great pictures and notes in a box and of course sounds much better than my well-worn record.Free Music Review: David Bowie Live Santa Monica '72

Punky. A great contrast to the Tower recording and to the studio tracks. His vocals are often overshadowed by his theatrics. I can't think of anyone in the rock genre who had such a range. Even my swing-loving mother thinks he's great.Free Music Review: Ziggy Live

A wonderful performance by the Spiders from Mars. It showcases, Bowie and Ronson in the early years
Ronson's back up vocals, blend well with Bowie's early sound.
Wish I could have been there!
