David Bowie, Scary Monsters, 1980 on RCA Victor.

David Bowie, Scary Monsters, 1980 on RCA Victor.

Bowie working with Tony Visconti, guests include Robert Fripp, Pete Townshend, Carlos Alomar, Andy Clark

Transitional album between the Berlin Trilogy and Let’s Dance. (I know some folks think of it as his last great album, and see LD as a falling off – I don’t, but do love this album).

Had this one since the early 80s so not sure where I picked it up

David Bowie, Lodger, 1979 on RCA Victor

Third album in the so-called Berlin trilogy (after Low and “Heroes”) in collaboration with Brian Eno and Tony Visconti. Recorded in Switzerland and New York city, and the first Bowie album to feature Adrian Belew alongside Carlos Alomar.

A remastered Lodger came out in 2017 as part of the box set A New Career In a New Town (1977-1982).

My copy—via the Worcester Record Riot—is an early 80s reissue for the European Market, on RCA International, pressed by Sonopress in Germany.

T. Rex, T. Rex, 1970 on Reprise

Debut album as “T. Rex” for Marc Bolan and Mickey Finn, having previously released as Tyrannosaurus Rex, out on Reprise in 1970. Tony Visconti produced and reportedly added bass and recorder to some tracks.

The electric guitar Bolan holds on the gatefold cover signals the shift into a more rock sound from the folkier early records but also still a fair amount of strings and acoustic stuff here.

My copy is the 2024 VMP Reissue on green (“Jewel of Frost”) 180g vinyl.
