A great look into the development of a star, lots of early signs to the genius that would emerge later. A definite must for Bowie fans, but for others its a really interesting listen. You can hear him experimenting, but at the same time trying to stay within the normal bounds of music. The first side of the album has the best songs, I think, with Changes Oh You Pretty Things and Life on Mars. The second side fades a little but, he does back to back tribute songs, one to Bob Dylan and the other to Andy Warhol. They are good, but not great. Anyways, I think you'd like it, happy labor day.
