Two things inspired this album, firstly Bowie’s marriage in 1992 to Iman and their experience of seeing the LA riots at first hand the next week. The music sounds bold and confident, and definitively Bowie, featuring guest appearances from Mike Garson and Mick Ronson as well as anticipating the rise of Britpop and 90’s dance. The highlight is a down tempo cover of I Feel Free, which expresses Bowie’s new found artistic confidence.
