Review title: Original, on the edge
Product review: The first half of "Low" is original and cutting edge stuff. Lyrics that could mean anything serve as a Rorhshach for the listener to make out of them as he wishes. The music is wonderfully avant garde-short, dynamic pieces that stick with you long after the cd is over. If you liked Gary Numan's "Cars", you will have a fair idea of what this album is like-new sounding even years after its release. This is "New Wave" at its best. I must have played these songs hundreds of times. The second half of the CD is not as successful as the first. After the fast paced, quick changing, break necked pace of side one (on the record album), side two contains long, brooding pieces full of synthesizer and odd vocalising. Some of it is enjoyable, some of it I never returned to after two or three listens. Essential Bowie. This was made when he was interested in and able to produce strikingly original records.
