"Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)" - David Bowie's last great album

Описание: Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking! (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...)


David Bowie’s “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)” is, for many fans, his last great album.  Mick regards it as one of Bowie’s best, while “Ashes to Ashes” is Bowie's confession to a decade of hedonism.  Mick and Jeff talk through what makes this album great, and look at the music environment as Bowie, along with many other 70’s greats, faced the changes in a new decade.   


“Knockin’ on Heaven's Door” offers a long line of new entrants to Rock’n’Roll Heaven including Herbie Flowers, Tito Jackson, Kris Kristofferson and Liam Payne from One Direction. 


Our Album You Must Listen to Before you Die, fresh from Robert Dimery’s book, is Dexy’s Midnight Runners’ “Don't Stand Me Down”, a massive failure on release in 1985 but receiving a fresh critical re-evaluation in modern times.  We didn’t like it!  Not least because of their complete rip-off of Warren Zevon's “Werewolves of London".
