Lodger, the third of the Bowie/Eno trilogy is more reflective of Bowie's style than the more collaborative efforts of Heroes and Low. The sound with its constantly driving percussion and the vagulely African/Middle Eastern rhythms creates a hypnotic feel that captures the listener. But when focus shifts to Bowie's typically distant lyrics, this CD becomes a triumph of style over substance. A little more substance and this could have been one of Bowie's best, as it is it is well worth your time.
