Shop for david bowie for low prices

This covers most of the best (if you can narrow it down!) I have a few other favs that it's missing. But its a great starter if you don't already own any Bowie albums. I still recommend this one for the car, and listen to it all the time. Grat...

My friend purchased this CD for me thru Amazon (rather than download it, because I'm a huge Bowie fan and of course wanted the full package with artwork), and we were both shocked to find that this 'Audio CD' (in quotes because it really ISNT an...

The Single (1) CD version of the "Best of Bowie" is the one you should get if you are just interested in his all-time greatest hits (the ones that they regularly play on FM radio). The 2 CD version has a lot of junk on it that you do not need....

I don't care what the review says, this is the best cover of Across the Universe ever! The best song on the CD next to Fame and better than Fiona Apple's and Rufus Wainwright's, which are pretty good themselves.

I love the drumming...

I try to be open-minded when it comes to 70's music, because there was so many creative artists back then doing radically different things and breaking new ground (many times not even REALIZING they were) that I can't help but admire the influence...

Bowie's `Young Americans' is an album that I bought for one reason only; it was a David Bowie album from the 70's, his most important era. Otherwise, I would have no interest in a blue-eyed soul record. For that reason alone is `Young Americans'...

Not really a Bowie fan, I always feel like he's contrived and a bit of a Queen. But years later, I gotta admit a lot of his songs makes you think of some your carefree days, I guess because the tunes are so danceable and they were always playing...

There's no denying that David Bowie is one of the greatest artists in rock history (voted # 8 of all time by VH1), and condensing his 30 - plus years of music to a single or even double disc collection is difficult. In 2002, this feat was...

Overall this is a decent collection of Bowie hits, but how can it be called "Greatest Hits" without the inclusion of one of his true masterpieces Diamond Dogs? Unfortunately I overlooked this glaring omission too late, after I made my purchase....

This was actually the first Bowie album I ever bought (!), and I still like it, despite listening to his much more adventurous and creative music that preceeded this album. This was Bowie's biggest album commercially, infuriating many longtime...

David Bowie always walked a thin line between commercially acceptable and just plain commercial. This is the first time he fell off and became just plain commercial. A disco-esque record, it's remembered more fondly than it was received by Bowie...

David Bowie never stays with one musical style for very long; however, I think this may be the first time he has revisited a previous approach. His interest in R&B/dance music began with the Young Americans album and ended with the Station to...

There are so many reviews of this album already I don't want to be redundant but as someone who has every album that Bowie ever released and then some, I want to chime in and encourage you to check this out. When reviewers mince about whether the...

Well, this is one of those albums. The song in question is "Ashes to ashes," an inventive and attractive sequel to "Space Oddity." Aside from that, this album is a self-indulgent mess.

I think the basic problem is that Bowie had...

Scary Monsters had the full intentions of returning Bowie to his former brilliance, but it falls short. There are too many inconsistencies in between the flashes of greatness. The title track rox as does the nod to Space Oddity Ashes To Ashes,...

Space Oddity is probably my favorite David Bowie album. I guess for most people, this album only shows signs of what Bowie would soon become in the future- a creative, glammy songwriting genius.

For me however, it shows a really...

Of course, I'm a die-hard Bowie fan, and out of all of his albums (of which i own all, barring the 80's pop star phase), this is one of the weakest. "Space Oddity" is a classic song, of course, but aside from that, none of the other songs really...

This is David Bowie's first "rock" album, and his second album overall. That first album cast him as a Bob Dylan wannabe, and the less said about it, the better. Recorded several years before the title track became a hit in the U.S., Space...

First of all, I want to say I will NOT be listening to these late 70's David Bowie albums very often (Heroes, Low, and Lodger) because for some reason, they give me incredibly severe nightmares.

But, when I don't mind having...

The "Berlin" trilogy - and David Bowie's collaboration with Brian Eno - was a penniless and weary traveler by the time of this May 1979 release.

Gone was the experimental edginess and creative power of Low and Heroes, which was...

Easily Bowie's most difficult album. It's still good, but requires multiple listens to fully appreciate.

From the opening verses sung in Japanese, there's a distinct sense that something dark and sinister is going on just beneath the surface of this record. It's a very visual album, and as Bowie takes the listener through this journey, he confronts...

When I first reviewed this album, I said it was Bowie's best since SCARY MONSTERS.

After dozens and dozens of listens, I have to revise that: THIS is Bowie's best.

I never thought I'd say that ANY album by Bowie could top...

Despite the relative blandness throughout the album, there are some memorable songs, worth adding to any Bowie enthusiast's list. At times there's over-production and songs going on cruise control, but there's also that typical Bowie...

I have always been a big Bowie fan, but I came along later in his musical career. In fact, Let's Dance was my 1st introduction to Bowie when I was about 12, so it always has a special place in my heart. The only earlier Bowie I listened to for a...

At least two (2) Hybrid SACDs of Bowie's Let's Dance [Hybr]) that I received were not not re-recorded in 5.1.

To ensure that my audio system was properly set up. I first played Bowie's Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust (an EMI product, made in...

My rating is based on how I like the Music and the mix on the SACD layer. On this recording I miss the Multichannel mix, but the Music is good. To me his is the best recording made by Bowie. This is a must have if you will have 100 albums or...
