    I never knew quite what to make of him. Part of me thinks he was just a clever collaborator and thier. When he worked with Mick Ronson, he sounded like Mick Ronson. When he worked with Carlos Alomar, he sounded like him. When he worked with Eno, he sounded like him. When he worked with Nile Rodgers he sounded like him. He did great stuff with Iggy Pop.

    When he's made poor choices in partners (Reeves Gabrel, etc.,), he's made utter dreck.

    Hasn't had a hit in a long time either.

    But, back in the day, he sure did capture a lot of girl's imaginations!

    • No, he made Outside with Reeves Gabrel, which is probably the best album of the 90s.CyBrain
    • There was an interview somewhere, where he said that he collected personalities. I think that's the art of Bowie, a collector.Anders
