Deluxe re-release of David Bowie's hugely influential 1976 album, Station to Station. This 3-CD set includes the complete original album together with the much bootlegged live favourite and previously unreleased Live Nassau Coliseum '76. STATION TO STATION was the soundtrack to Bowie's nightlife. This time around he fashioned himself as the king of slick, the "Thin White Duke/Throwing darts in lover's eyes." This new persona enabled Bowie to show his sensual side and his affection for American soul music–something that would have seemed out of context on previous efforts. The album's smooth vibe is evident in the funky guitar of "Golden Years," and mixed with a dangerous charm and the "side effects of the cocaine" on "Stay." Bowie had miraculously done it again–he picked up a new musical identity, and molded it to perfection.
STATION TO STATION was a refining period for Bowie. Gone was his other-worldly sexuality; The Thin White Duke was right here on Earth, no alien veneer, just a man completely run by his desires. It is then purely appropriate that the medium through which he expressed this lustful angle would be soul music. Carlos Alomar's biting guitar on "Golden Years" is straight out of the James Brown catalog, while the frantic drums and background vocals of "Stay" are pure strobe light disco.

CD ONE

An interesting remaster. I was perfectly happy with my 1999 remaster but I appreciate the "toned-down" (less loud) sound on this one and the 70s-style stereo, which is always a treat to listen to. I wish they would do it with other albums such as Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs and Young Americans. You do have to turn your volume control up a bit louder though.

CD TWO

Astonishingly good live cuts. Wonderful sound, great versions of the songs played by a top notch bunch of musicians. Such a pleasure to listen to. I can't stop listening to it. Within a year and three quarters, Bowie had knocked "David Live" into a bipperty bopperty hat.

CD THREE

I agree, there is a slight discernable change in sound quality, and Life On Mars (why Bowie only sang half of it I'm not sure) and Five Years are clearly a bit crackly in the background. The rest of the CD is perfectly acceptable though and I certainly would not describe it as "bootleg quality". If indeed it is bootleg quality however, it is a very good bootleg ! I wish my other bootlegs sounded like this ! The playing of the band gets a tad more frenetic and sloppy as the gig reaches its climax, but isn't that always the way ? Early songs in the set list are always played more diligently.

With regard to the drum solo that has been truncated. Thank God ! This is not Deep Purple's "Made In Japan". Drum solos should stay back in the 70s ! However, I can understand why people would prefer it in its entirety for a true reproduction of the gig as it truly was.
