    Magnificent performances from The Great Man. The Drowned Girl and Remembering Marie A in particular are simply remarkable. An essential Bowie release.

      Anyone know which version of this had the green marbled vinyl?

        This is truly awesome. Bowie in fine voice. This is really underrated and a fan needs it in their collection.
