09.07.2008 06:54    75orless.com
Simple premise: 12 primarily electronic musicians and bands cover 12 mostly unfamiliar deep cuts (with some exceptions) from David Bowie's catalogue. I had hoped coming into this that these two factors working together would produce some interesting results. They don't.

Fabulous Diamonds - S/T

19.06.2008 09:14    75orless.com
