Description

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A LP BY DAVID BOWIE CALLED "SPACE ODDITY". IT WAS RELEASED ON THE RCA LABEL (AOL-1-4813) OUT OF THE U.S. IN 1972. THE COVER & THE  LP ARE NEAR MINT 

Originally released as Man of Words/Man of Music, Space Oddity was David Bowie's first successful reinvention of himself. Abandoning both the mod and Anthony Newley fascinations that marked his earlier recordings, Bowie delves into a lightly psychedelic folk-rock, exemplified by the album's soaring title track. Bowie actually attempts a variety of styles on Space Oddity, as if he were trying to find the ones that suited him best. As such, the record isn't very cohesive, but it is charming, especially in light of his later records. Nevertheless, only "Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud" and "Memory of a Free Festival" rank as Bowie classics, and even those lack the hooks or purpose of "Space Oddity."
