Title: Really wish I never bought this, at any price
Product review: All you need to do is look at the cover, in which David looks like one of the Thompson Twins, to get an idea of what this album sounds like: Bowie imitating `80s Bowie imitators. This is, by far, the worst Bowie album aside from maybe David Bowie (1969), which at least didn't sell many copies. Even Tin Machine, which has been almost equally dissed, has a few potentially good songs. By regular `80s pop standards, this is a lackluster album; compared to his `70s albums, or even his first mainstream `80s album, Let's Dance, it's embarrassing. David himself has admitted in several interviews (including one David Buckley included in his Bowie biography) that he wasn't very connected with his music at the time, and it comes through.You'd be better off buying almost ANYTHING else in his catalog!
