Our Take

In the illustrious career of David Bowie, there have been countless artists who have taken inspiration from the Thin White Duke himself. Enter VARIOUS ARTISTS: Bowie Heard Them Here First, a compilation album that delves into the music that influenced one of the greatest musical chameleons of all time.

From the haunting vocals of Scott Walker to the glam rock stylings of Marc Bolan, this album showcases a wide array of artists who laid the groundwork for Bowie's iconic sound. Tracks like Walker's "The Electrician" and Bolan's "Life's a Gas" offer a glimpse into the sonic landscape that Bowie would later dominate.

But it's not just the big names that shine on this compilation. Lesser-known artists like Jacques Brel and The Velvet Underground also make appearances, providing a more nuanced look at the eclectic tastes of the Starman himself.

Overall, VARIOUS ARTISTS: Bowie Heard Them Here First is a must-listen for any Bowie fan looking to deepen their understanding of the man behind the music. So put on your favourite pair of glittery platform shoes, crank up the volume, and get ready to hear the songs that shaped a legend. Bowie would be proud.
