Biography

Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
The cliché about David Bowie says he's a musical chameleon, adapting himself according to fashion and trends. While such a criticism is too glib, there's no denying that Bowie demonstrated remarkable skill for perceiving musical trends at his peak in the '70s. After spending several years in the late '60s as a mod and as an all-around music-hall entertainer,… Read more in Amazon's David Bowie Store

4.0 out of 5 stars BOWIE, ONE OF A KIND, June 5, 2007
By 
P. E. May (sandy beach, australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Best of Sight & Sound (Audio CD)
I do not agree with the two faded, jaded, sad people who have given this collection such a bad rap.
Some of the songs on this collection are not his best, but they are priceless jewels, never the same, and will NEVER be repeated.
Please, Bowie fans and those who are just interested, give this collection your own verdict and dont be swayed by some people who think they know better than a master songwriter and producer.

3.0 out of 5 stars Better than buying the original 80s albums, July 2, 2007
By 
J. Simon (Canton, Michigan) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Best of Sight & Sound (Audio CD)
Obviously this isn't Bowie's greatest period; yet there are some great singles here (Ashes to Ashes, China Girl, Let's Dance). Overall, it's not an important disc. It was included in a box set with two other discs('69-'74 & '74-'79)that have been available for about ten years. People who own the other two discs were, of course, reluctant to purchase them again in a box set. For us, this disc is a welcome release and an essential purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD, July 8, 2007
This review is from: Best of Sight & Sound (Audio CD)
I am very happy with this purchase. The CD is great. It arrived in excellent condition and packaging to protect it. It took a little more time than usual to receive, but still, it didn't take that long to get it.
