Description: Here we have the definitive CD version of a genuine masterpiece from the always provocative DAVID BOWIE: Station to Station, first released in 1977 by RCA, issued in this handsome triple CD box in 2010. This version adds a two-disc live set (a stunning '76 gig at the Nassau Coliseum) to the original album, along with various other goodies, including three color photo cards. Nearly five decades later, Station to Station still stands as one of David's best. Harnessing the detached plastic soul of Young Americans to a dazzling art-rock groove, Station to Station is a transitional album that creates its own distinctive style while taking bold strides into the future. Jettisoning any pretense of being an authentic soul man while incorporating the rhythmic elements of soul into an intoxicatingly icy groove, Bowie embarks on the path he would explore throughout his next four studio albums -- one of the finest stretches of his career. Everything from epic ballads and disco to synthesized avant pop and swaggering glam-rock is present on Station to Station, made all the more unpredictable and thrilling by Bowie's cocaine-induced paranoia and charmingly detached persona. At its heart, this is an avant-garde art-rock album, most explicitly on "TVC 15" and the epic sprawl of the title track, but also on the cool crooning of "Wild Is the Wind" and "Word on a Wing," as well as the soulful stylings of the hit single "Golden Years." Station to Station was a milestone in the discography of David Bowie, as well as a work that would prove enormously influential on the post-punk movement. And here we have box set edition with two amazing bonus discs. The Nassau Coliseum show is so good that it's hard to believe Bowie didn't release it back in the day. Now it can be yours with the purchase of this set. The CDs are unplayed and mint. It's a promotional copy, and there is a very light vertical cut through the bar code on the back.
