CD Reviews

She's Got Medals! A Vast Improvement...
S. Bottino | Albany NY | 05/31/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"A vast sonic improvement over the 1997 Deram Anthology! CD #1: The original first album in mono and stereo...CD #2: singles, b-sides, rarities ("London Bye Ta-Ta", "Ching-a-Ling", "When I'm Five"...and live radio performances of some of the songs) A very extensive booklet and packaging. For many Bowie fans (and myself), this was the David Bowie that I discovered years after I had heard Ziggy and Aladdin Sane...and it fits right in with the chameleon thing: cool songs, weird songs, strange ones too...Bowie. Again, I really must stress the sound of this remaster is stunning!"
