FACE.
SUEEEEEEEEEEEEE….
Recorded over this summer by David Bowie with young Tony Visconti producing and the Maria Schneider Orchestra playing skronky jazz stuff, “Sue (or in a season of crime)” gilds the lily or does it salt the mine? Either way there is yet another Bowie compilation Nothing Has Changed and three new songs to give us a better reason for buying it –though to be honest, the track list is quite fun… take a look…

I have no idea why he put these songs together but as long as he is happy, why not I say. “Sue” is awesome if you like this sorta weirdly addictive passionate sax screetch on top of Bowie at his completely and most over the top. I absolutely love it myself
