the skeletal remake of "Space Oddity"
I used to think that I was a bit of a Bowie fan but I've never heard of this. Any good?

I agree with the lone voice mentioning the Baal EP as a highlight. A very important record for me personally.
And I agree that Tin Machine was somewhat better than people at the time were prepared to admit. Take 'Bus Stop':
There's a cry that is heard in the cityFrom Vivian at Pentecost LaneA shrieking and dancing till 4 a.m.Another night of muscles and painI love you despite your convictionsThat God never laughs at my jokes
I'm a young man at odds with the Bible But I don't pretend faith never works When we're down on our knees Praying at the bus stop
Now Jesus he came in a visionAnd offered you redemption from sinI'm not saying that I don't believe youBut are you sure that it really was himI've been told that it couldn've been blue cheeseOr the meal that we ate down the roadHallelujah
Quality vaudeville, and a salient warning to believers in the talking fish.
