CD Reviews

DEI LUXE
Kerry Leimer | Makawao, Hawaii United States | 07/01/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"One of his best late-period records -- anyone care to argue whether Earthling is a Bowie album or the third Tin Machine release? -- made more compelling by the guitar work of David Torn, a terrific cover of one of the better Pixies songs, Major Tom's wanking twin, a Saul-Bellowish short-story set to music and the sort of track to track coherence of the Early Days. It's enough to make you forgive and forget "Let's Dance"!



This package may be pretty highly priced, but the "bonus" disc does include work not present in the previous and original "limited edition" which remains available still. (What are the "limits" exactly?) But all the additions aside (The word "extras" seems inappropriate -- it's like saying "extra money". Be honest, is there such a thing?) the reproduction here seems snapped up a few points: more inner detail and better imaging and nuance to the dynamic range which means you need something a few steps up from the iPod dock to get what you're paying for. With the tracks that are added -- Wood Jackson; When the Boys Come Marching Home; Baby Loves That Way; You've Got a Habit of Leaving; Safe; and Shadow Man -- make it enough volume for a second album. And they're not celeb remixes. But as good as the work is here there are no standouts that compare to the final selects comprising the original album. Nice to have, nice to hear and good to know that one of his better efforts has another incarnation. If you can spare the change, and the time."
Visconti RULES - as good as Station to Station, Heroes, Youn

"This is the best record Bowie's put out since - what? - Young Americans.



Coincidence? No. Tony Visconti is the magic ingredient.



I was raised on early Bowie - from the absolute start to Heroes. I got off the bus around Let's Dance - not my cup of tea.



Heathen is thoughtful, engaging, fun, and interesting to listen to."
