Best Of Seven Months In America

If your a die in the wool Bowiephile this is an essential purchase, end of!First five tracks are stripped back versions, something Bowie was brilliant at especially in the latter years of his career.Sound quality of this CD is really top notch. It’s the best Bowie purchase I’ve personally made since his death when it comes to all these semi official David Bowie releases that we are now seeing on a regular basis.Be warned though! You think you might have come to terms with Bowie’s sad passing? Listening to this CD of a true genius is guaranteed to make your heart ache return.

To the best of my knowledge, I haven't already got these versions.The cd is only 40 minutes long, but it's the best 40 minutes I've spent in a very, very long time.I'm audibly challenged (understatement!) but these sounded great!Well worth the £9.99 I paid.Buy it. ❤ x

An excellent gap filler recorded during the 1997 'Earthling Tour'.Tracks 1 to 5 recorded at the Smith's Olde Bar Atlanta (1997.04.08)Track 6 to 9 recorded at the 1997 GQ Man Of The Year, New York (1997-10-15)

Nice live album. Side one some nice stripped down acoustic versions, side two is full live band and rocks out. Dates from 97, probably sourced from radio broadcast material and what previously has been kicking around as bootlegs. Record quality is good. You won't be disappointed, this was an interesting period for Bowie with the Earthling album being current and the live band was really good around that time as I can testify as I saw him at the Phoenix festival. Not the longest album you will ever buy but at fifteen quid or so it's worth it.

Seriously wonderful. The live versions of Jean Jenie and Moonage Daydream are superb. Bowie sounds energised and the musicianship is top notch. Short but worth it

I was lucky enough to attend a low key performance at Rock City Nottingham with 800 others at this period of Bowies life, no merchandise, no recording of it, he walked out with no intro, sat down with an acoustic guitar and chatted and played till the band came on and the show built, 3 hours they played. This vinyl is the only recording that comes close to that brilliant night. It is an absolute must for any Bowie fan, even if you were not as lucky as I, you can feel the fun in his voice, relaxed and enjoying himself, just wish it was longer.

I bought this to add to my ever growing Bowie collection. When I put it on I was blown away by it. I hadn't heard these versions of these songs before. If you are a fan then you most definitely need this in your collection.

Bowie adherent ? Then get this. Acoustic bowie at his relaxed best. Clean recording and to my knowledge not included anywhere else. It bridges a lovely gap from the performance bowie to a matured laid back jazzy sound and then facing the inevitable. A must addition to any serious collection.
