England was pretty interesting music wise in the early 1970's. Seeing the Stones, Roxy Music, and Bowie, etc. in those times on Top Of The Pops, Old Grey Whistle Test, and so on was very exciting and it took us away from the other artists' pop fluff of the era. There are some great songs on this one, sound quality is generally excellent for the most part (Note: the "1980 Floor Show" songs (3) have been excluded as they were recently posted here, as has "White Light/White Heat" with Mick Ronson on lead vocals as that may be from his already heard "Play Don't Worry" solo album, same with "Moonage Daydream" from London's Hammersmith Odeon that was recorded live on 03/07/73 - although I may stand corrected).

Great stuff thanks for this. Bowie's best period. Only trouble is, I can't download. Says I have reached my download limit when I haven't even downloaded one track from rapidshare yet.

His rendition of Brel's Amsterdam is just brilliant in studio..
very nice to see it here.Might comment on it soon...

Slow going - but nice to have time to appreciate track by track for a change...
Really good stuff - thanks for posting.

Cheers.

thanks for posting.
however, there is a digital 'skip' during the first 15 seconds of track 5, "fill your heart".
i downloaded the track twice to be sure it wasn't my pc causing the problem.
just some advise to those downloading these files...
thanks again, these are great!

Try again. Hope it's OK.
