Scoring a piece of art out of 5 ★s is a pathetic attempt to grade and rate everything. Subjectivity doesn't work like that my friend.

It's quite fascinating how this kind of material presages so much his later stuff, but how at the same time it was stylistically more-or-less ditched permanently after 'Man'.

Quote :
David Bowie used a child's Rosedale Electric Chord Organ, obtained from Woolworths, on both LP and single versions of the song to give a "classic Ivor Cutler/harmonium feel"

Well, that that done and dusted.

If it'd been by someone else it'd probably be held in higher regard, but since it's D. Bovvie it falls under a more harsh, unforgiving light.

Still, compared to what came before it, it's a triumph of reinvention so, thus, deserved a fair degree of credit.

In many respects it's no worse than "The Man Who etc" and people bot that like mad (I think it's a bit overrated).
