BLACKSTAR

It has been such a bad year having lost so many of these visionaries. Bowie was one for me. This album is clearly a milestone again. The content is great, not the best he has done of course but I doubt there are many who could have pulled this off in the health he was in while making it. It does sound real and that is something in these days of the predictable sound we hear in rock now. Will anybody ever take the place of Bowie? There is no sign of it yet. This album reminds me of a final album that sounds not even slightly like this one. Queen. Both sound like there is no attempt to be commercial radio stations but also not trying to be too clever. Excellent and I am glad I bought this.
