Time flexes again I've been waiting for this for so long - happy memories of 1973 onwards with this as the soundtrack. There are some of the original comments missing but most of them are there (including the pliers/strong hand one which one reviewer mentioned was missing). It's a fantastic live gig, far beter than the one from Hammersmith and if you haven't heard it already then get it now! It's great to hear Mick Ronson's spectacularly raw guitar playing which is a perfect complement to David's haunting vocals.Love it,... more info
Top class Suprise I only have one Bowie album ( its true) Hunky Dory and to be honest I cant even say when the last time was that I played it, yea I have records and CD`s. so an old friend lent this to me to see if he could fire up my interest ,We have known each other for at least 30 years and use to have a good idea of what each other liked and listened to.

There are only one or two tracks which... more info
Disappointingly inferior to Hammersmith Odean The album may be much hyped but when I bought it I was deeply disappointed. Frankly I felt that none of the songs were performed any better than the farewell concert at Hammersmith Odean the following year, and some of them were considerably worse. Released as Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: the Motion Picture Soundtrack, the Hammersmith Odean CD offers 20 tracks and they give a much better flavour of David Bowie and Mick Ronson at their very best. Buy that CD instead, or even better the DVD of... more info
