The saxes blaring through both ear channels on the back end of that track are insane.

Not David's overall best album for me, but his best in a very long time. I don't even feel like giving it the "best since Scary Monsters" It's just as good or arguably better. It's not easily out shined by the others. Considering this is his twenty-fifth album it's in my top 8 and that means a whole lot. Damn fine record and the only thing I've considered buying on Vnyl in a long time.



There isn't a track on here I dislike.

Once you get past how bloody awful blackstar is (title track), this actually has some pretty good stuff.
