No album before or since has captured teenage angst as well as Bowie has here,Mick Ronson's solo's are surely some of the greatest ever put to vinyl.Not one second is wasted here but go for the Costly Disc editions which include the fab Sweet Head,surely the best Bowie song not to make the final cut.
I've been listening to this for nearly 30 years and not that much has come close.Every home (and teenager) should have one,the EMO kids would love it (and see where all those EMO bands get it from),
Truly essential.

I bought this album in 1972 on vinyl which I still own and play, cant wait to listen to it on CD, David Bowie at his best.
