Customer Reviews of Heroes [Bonus Tracks]
See a different world Bowie's artistic credibility (a fairly tattered thing, nowadays) was built largely around the fact that in the mid- to late-70's he took off to Europe and started making hugely uncommercial (yet hugely influential) music with ex-Roxy Music man Brian Eno. The results of this collaboration were patchy but never less than interesting. 'Heroes' (the quotation marks are a deliberate irony) is a unique mix of fuzzy guitars, prototype electronics, murky vocals and delicate instrumentals. Highlights: the title track, one of the greatest love songs ever written; 'Joe the Lion'; 'Beauty and the Beast'. This ranks up with the Cure's 'Faith' as an album that transports you into a frame of mind that's oddly disquieting. Listen, and prepare to be... can't explain it, really. But one thing's for sure: It's genuinely original; there's nothing quite like it.
Confounding experimentalism----
This album follows the shallow soul of 'Young Americans' and the grab bag of 'Station To Station', Bowie's unexciting, post 'Diamond Dogs' albums, and 'Low', the first installment of Bowie's deeply atmospheric collaborations with one-time Roxy Music mastermind Brian Eno. Its another of his extremely schizophrenic recordings--from the displaced faux-disco of "Beauty & The Beast", to the astonishing "Sons Of The SIlent Age", which oozes Ziggy-style swagger in the vocals. But the timeless title track is what makes this a must have--one of the most affective pieces of music Bowie ever recorded. Jakob Dylan be damned!! This is the real deal.....
BOWIE AT HIS SEMINAL BEST.
This is Bowie at the height of his creative exploration. Reflective of the era in which it was written and released, Heroes is marvelous series of musical landscapes cascading in the very capable hands of Messrs., Fripp and Eno. A very imporant record.
