Low or lower still?
Re: David Bowie - Low (1977)
This is his Jazz swansong.
A semi-improvised, free-form jazz vocal.
He plays saxophone also.

Re: David Bowie - Low (1977)
It is as good is it's cracked up to be.
Perhaps better than they even intended.
It stands the test of time because it both encapsulates and transcends the time when it was created.
A pile of catastrophic, pretentious w*nk if you crave pop songs, it's still got more pop songs worthy of a smash hit (i.e. 1) than 99.9recurring% albums.

I can only assume that a massive wasp has invaded Wendi's bedroom and that she's spent the last hour+ trying to subdue it with the dust at bottom of a packet of Frisps with a dainty bomb in in it.

I didn't know we were doing this. I've been away watching videos about how to build a PC for 25 pence.

In fairness, I suspect I enjoyed them a lot more than I would this album, given how bad all of Bovvie's other albums that I've heard have been.

He should've stuck to only making singles.
He was good at those.

I shall give the album zero stars because I've not heard it.

I think I might get my ★★★★★ vote ready for reasons of comic cosmic balance.
You doing this now? side 1 pop songs, side 2, less so.

You are going to have to do this album at some point, Wendi.
