Recorded
live during Bowie's last concert tour this double LP contains songs from Bowie's
Ziggy Stardust period through the present arranged in pretty much
chronological order. The LP represents the current just-David-Bowie persona
of this chameleon-like artist. There is a minimum of frills and electronic
gimmicks here, though the music remains adventuresome nonetheless. Bowie's
versatile voice is upfront here, while his eight-man band provides adequate
but not overweening support. If the result sounds a bit more crude than is
normally expected from Bowie, it is also that much more vital. Bowie opens
up his songs a little more here, and by scraping off some of the gloss
allows the listener closer to his work. Best cuts: Everyone has different
favorites. Dealers: RCA is supporting this with extensive promotional and
merchandising campaign.
