At 66, David Bowie is still amazing. This is a provocative and wonderful piece of work; his 30th album (I think) and his first in a decade. It isn't my favorite Bowie album, but be real, that's some stiff competition. (The critics raved about it, with 44 reviews at an average of 81/100.) It takes focus to get into it.
My favorite song is the Trip-Hoppy Dirty Boys (the horn, mixed with electronics is intoxicating), but don't miss the slow rocker Boss Of Me or the pounding, danceable How Does The Grass Grow?
