Album Review

As if the flood of compilations called Best of Bowie in 2002 weren't confusing enough -- there was a different track listing for each territory around the world, all bearing the same name and album cover -- in 2004, a double-disc version of Best of Bowie was released in U.S., which was different than the "bonus CD" edition released in North America in 2002. It's not too different -- a slightly different sequencing, it's a track longer, it has a couple different songs (and there's an edition with a bonus CD containing remixes) -- but even if the details are slightly different, the overall gist remains: this is an excellent double-disc overview of Bowie's '70s and '80s peak. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
