I really wanted to like it, but my god, it is perhaps the most over-produced junk I now have in my CD collection. BTW, I am a huge Bowie fan. As I listened to it for the first time, I quickly realized that the album is a classic example of fine musicians (Slick, Leonard, Dorsey, and Campbell) who have all lost their rudder at the hands of HORRIBLE production. The songs are chock full of needless, annoying bells and whistles that serve to grate, misdirect, and take one's attention away from Bowie's still remarkable voice. There will no doubt be those who rave about how great it is, but let's get real on this one...it's a mess.
