This review is from: Live: Oy Vey Baby (Audio CD)

This is a good live album. It has the edgiest track from the first album. The harsh and abrasive "I can't read". "Heaven's in Here" is anouther great track and its done well here. "Stateside" from the second album just has a great feel to it. Tin Machine seems to be an under appreciated venture by Bowie because it was a band and not just Bowie.

People who complain about Tin Machine will absolutely hate this album, as well as their self-titled debut...which I think was brilliant as well. It's reckless, ballsy, obnoxious, abrasive and amazing, baby! HIGHLY recommended.

In the canon of David Bowie's work, Oy Vey, Baby is not essential. And, if you are a Tin Machine fan, the band's first studio album will probably keep you coming back to listen more than this one (or, for that matter, their second studio album). The songs themselves are better than some reviews might suggest. In fact, in general the songs that Tin Machine recorded in their brief "career" continue multiple levels of meaning, even if musically sometimes they seem like grunge with some undefinable quality missing. Of all the Bowie albums I own (all of them, including compilations of the pre-fame releases), this is the one I play least. If you can find a used copy, or an Amazon affiliate has a good deal on a new copy, it's worth considering, but at full list price, I'd look to Tin Machine's first album, or any one of a number of solo Bowie albums that are much better.
