David Bowie
Features

David Bowie: VH1 StorytellersDavid Bowie's VH1 Storytellers tells a sad tale: our hero lamentably mines adult contemporary territory while a former label looks for an easy payday. [15 July 2009] 
David Bowie: Live Santa Monica ‘72Bowie's first live U.S. radio broadcast, a show in Santa Monica, California with the Spiders from Mars, is officially released 36 years after the fact. [25 July 2008] 
David Bowie: The Buddha of SuburbiaThis largely forgotten not-actually-a-soundtrack album is only pretty good, but it did initiate an upswing in quality releases from the always unpredictable David Bowie. [17 October 2007] 
David Bowie: Glass Spider Tour (Special Edition DVD / 2CD) [DVD]The Glass Spider tour seems to have been a crucial step on Bowie's road to recovery. [27 August 2007] 
David Bowie: Young AmericansTwo new reissues illustrate different sides of Bowie: restlessly shifting gears from glam rock to soul in the '70s and embracing complacency in the bad-taste abyss of the '80s. [8 June 2007] 
David Bowie: David Bowie: Under Review 1976 - 1979: The Berlin Trilogy [DVD]Unless you're already a huge fan, it would be hard to justify laying out the cash for the hit-and-miss budget documentary Under Review 1976 - 1979: The Berlin Trilogy. [21 December 2006] 
David Bowie: Serious Moonlight [DVD]Serious Moonlight captures Bowie at the point where he began to falter. Even worse, it's a testament to the glossy absurdity of the '80s. [10 April 2006] 
David Bowie: David Live / StageMasterpiece Theatre: David Live, re-mastered, re-issued (again)... and why it's worthy of re-appraisal. [5 April 2005] 
David Bowie: hours…David Bowie is much too good for this. Please David, leave the “adult-boring” charts to Celine Dion, Mariah Carey and the rest of that lot. [22 October 1999] |
