David Bowie - Bring Me the Disco King

[mitjalovse]

To be honest, you can't say that all the albums, where a musician looks back at the career so far, contain the best known pieces of the singer, Sakamoto's BTTB, for instance, isn't like this and the same can be said about The Next Day by David Bowie. I always claimed the record should be seen as a compilation of greatest hits in the form of a disc of original material, because the entire tracklist consists of the tunes, which remind us of his past. However, The Next Day doesn't feel like a nostalgia trip, the entire LP feels like him confronting his opus to move on. You see, this is the platter, where Bowie finished the phase of his discography, where many put him into the category a legacy musician, though he did everything he could to escape this. The follow-up did that succinctly.
