Hit: 5 Stars

`Station to Station' was yet another transitional album for Bowie in that it bridged the soul/funk of `Young Americans' with the Euro artiness of the `Berlin Period' that closed the decade. While the making of the album may have been hectic and even painful for David, there is no denying that even in his most trying times, the man could produce a work of genius. While `Young Americans' went flat footed on the dance floor, `Station is a triumph, the best since `Aladdin Sane'. Favorites include the haunting confessional "Word on a Wing", a beautiful and quite spiritual song. The title track is a two part epic that never seems as long as its ten minute running time....the return of the Thin White Duke. "Station" the song was seen as a direct ancestor to the Euro-rock of many late seventies - early eighties post-punk bands while "Golden Years" (lead single released the previous year) and "TV15" brought back the funk, although the latter also had very Euro leanings as well. "Stay" was funky too with some excellent hard rock guitar courtesy of frequent collaborator Earl Slick. Through a haze of cocaine in a desolate LA studio, Bowie created another masterwork which has quickly become a favorite, especially from the second half of the `70's....the European cannon is here!

Station to Station Poster

After the success of the dance hits "Fame" and "Young Americans" (both off 1975's Young Americans), Bowie seemed to step back, ponder the future of rock, and then turn up the guitars and the art-rock sensibilities and make a completely engaging and evocative album. From the epic title track (introducing the Thin White Duke character and building into an incendiary rocker) to the irresistible "Golden Years" (another dance hit) and on to the physically wrenching and funk-drenched "Stay," the soul of David Bowie is pretty much meshed into every track. The playful "TVC15" takes the listener on a bumpy ride into unholy tech-love, and the gorgeous "Wild is the Wind" and "Word on a Wing" have Bowie stepping out of his rocker persona and into sensual crooner mode. Strong from beginning to end. --Lorry Fleming
