Our Take

David Bowie's Live & Sessions 1970 is a time machine disguised as a vinyl record. This album captures the Starman at the peak of his glam rock glory, belting out classics like "The Man Who Sold the World" and "Space Oddity" with the raw energy of a supernova.

The live recordings on this album are a revelation, showcasing Bowie's mesmerizing stage presence and his ability to effortlessly shift between personas like a chameleon on speed. Tracks like "Width of a Circle" and "The Supermen" explode with a ferocity that will leave you gasping for breath and reaching for your glitter eyeliner.

But it's not just the live performances that make this album a must-have for any Bowie fan. The bonus studio sessions included here offer a glimpse into the creative process of a musical genius at work. From the haunting beauty of "Looking for a Friend" to the groovy goodness of "Shadowman," these tracks showcase Bowie's versatility as a songwriter and performer.

Overall, Live & Sessions 1970 is a treasure trove of musical gems that will make you fall in love with Bowie all over again. So grab your platform shoes, dust off your feather boa, and crank up the volume on this album. Major Tom would approve.

About the artist

David Bowie

Ah, David Bowie. The chameleon of rock. The shape-shifter of pop. The icon of androgyny. This man needs no introduction, but I'll give him one anyway. Bowie burst onto the scene in the 1970s, dazzling us with his flamboyant stage presence and out-of-this-world personas. From Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke, he captivated audiences with his groundbreaking music and avant-garde style. But it's not just Bowie's theatricality that sets him apart. His music is a genre-bending blend of rock, pop, electronic, and everything in between. Whether he's crooning "Space Oddity" or getting funky with "Let's Dance," Bowie's discography is as diverse as it is innovative. And let's not forget his collaborations with the likes of Queen, Lou Reed, and Iggy Pop, which further solidify his status as a musical legend. Bowie's impact on the industry is undeniable. He paved the way for countless artists to embrace their individuality and push the boundaries of creativity. And his influence continues to be felt today, with musicians of all genres citing him as a major inspiration. So here's to David Bowie, the man who showed us that music knows no limits and that being yourself is the greatest gift of all. Rest in peace, Starman.
