Review by Hannah Lindsay

Best of Bowie is a compilation album by the legendary British musician David Bowie. Released in 2002, the album features some of Bowie's most iconic tracks from his extensive career spanning decades. The album includes hits like "Space Oddity," "Changes," "Heroes," and "Let's Dance," among others.

The album is a perfect introduction to Bowie's music for those who are new to his work, as well as a great collection for fans who want to revisit some of his best songs. The songs are arranged in chronological order, providing a glimpse into the evolution of Bowie's music over the years. The album captures Bowie's unique style, which blends rock, pop, and electronic music, making it a perfect representation of his musical legacy.

One of the standout features of the album is the sound quality. The remastered tracks sound crisp and clear, allowing listeners to fully appreciate Bowie's music. The album also includes a booklet with rare photos and informative liner notes, providing additional context for the songs.

Ein tolles album , tolle Songs , ???
aamatawaran
This double-CD compilation is a pretty good one. It sounds great and serves as a nice introduction to David Bowie. Most of his popular songs along with a few lesser known tracks are set in chronological order. The first disc spans a ten year period, from 1969 to 1979. While disc two covers material from 1980 to 2002. Overall, there is a good mix of the iconic singer's ever changing sound. There's no doubt that Bowie was at his best during his first decade as a performer. For that reason, Disc 1 will be played more by most listeners. However, the second half is every bit as interesting if not as satisfying.
