Very strong songs. Passengers is the stand out track. Tonight is a little soiled for me. I wasn't aware of the Iggy version, only Bowie's abomination. Lovely old analogue production throughout the album. Cheers, D

Interesting chose after Transformer yesterday, what with both having a Bowie connection. However, this seems to have more of Bowie’s thumbprints all over it, sounding in large parts like one of David’s albums from around that time. Iggy himself feels a bit swamped here. The opener and closer are fantastic. As are The Passenger and Some Weird Sin, which sounds a lot more like Iggy than much of this set. But the other half of these selections suffer from not sharing more of the Stooges gene pool. I love Bowie, but this is not meant to be a Bowie album, and I feel like I am missing out on something as a consequence.
