 Time flexes again September 29, 2008

I've been waiting for this for so long - happy memories of 1973 onwards with this as the soundtrack. There are some of the original comments missing but most of them are there (including the pliers/strong hand one which one reviewer mentioned was missing). It's a fantastic live gig, far beter than the one from Hammersmith and if you haven't heard it already then get it now! It's great to hear Mick Ronson's spectacularly raw guitar playing which is a perfect complement to David's haunting vocals.Love it, love it, love it and it hasn't been off either my car CD player, Ipod or sound system since I bought it.

Suprise I only have one Bowie album ( its true) Hunky Dory and to be honest I cant even say when the last time was that I played it, yea I have records and CD`s. so an old friend lent this to me to see if he could fire up my interest ,We have known each other for at least 30 years and use to have a good idea of what each other liked and listened to. I always thought that Bowie was a pop star who`s singles sold well and maybe a lot of his fans were teens ( and he acted ). secondly I knew his guitarist Mick Ronson had a solo album out `Slaughter on 10th avenue` Which I have never heard but know it is good,so me not to bothered with the David Bowie thing was seriously suprised and delighted by this 72 Live recording. I have found the Bowie band I always wished would exsist they do, (or did ) this is a real rock band playing their hearts out, cracking America..I will now have to liasie with friend and see what else could I be tempted with ( thanks Shaun) I now owe you one.!!

I've not listened to Bowie for many years, but when I saw this had been released I decided to get it straight away. This was my favourite era, and I'm a big fan of live albums, seeing how well a small group can reproduce the songs on stage - and they certainly don't disappoint. The band wend their way through a brilliant 18-song set, ranging from the full-on rock of Suffragette City to a wonderful version of Space Oddity - just 2 vocals and a 12-string acoustic guitar. There are only one or two tracks which don't quite match up to the quality of the studio versions; but this is live music and you would expect that. The one thing that stops me giving this five stars is the sound quality and mix. Mostly it is very good, but frequently there are problems: Bowie's guitar is nearly always too quiet (almost inaudible, in fact) and his vocals are occasionally a bit lost in the mix, but my biggest complaint is that various sounds seem to wander over from one side of the stereo mix to the other during the songs, for no apparent reason - Ronson's guitar frequently does this, as do some of the vocals, which is really annoying. I've no idea of the sound source, but surely in this digital age something could have been done to fix it? The CD is nicely packaged in a small box, great artwork and lots of little goodies inside: postcards, booklet, etc. - a lot of effort has gone into this project - it's well worth the money.
 Disappointingly inferior to Hammersmith Odean July 16, 2008

The album may be much hyped but when I bought it I was deeply disappointed. Frankly I felt that none of the songs were performed any better than the farewell concert at Hammersmith Odean the following year, and some of them were considerably worse. Released as Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: the Motion Picture Soundtrack, the Hammersmith Odean CD offers 20 tracks and they give a much better flavour of David Bowie and Mick Ronson at their very best. Buy that CD instead, or even better the DVD of the concert.

Brill cd,would recomend. i whish i could have been old enough to go and see Bowie as Ziggy but 72 was the year i was born!!
Get this cd up at full volume and if you have it ,through surround sound it sounds as if you are actually there.
