Stuart Maconie on Diamond Dogs Part 2

Season 3, Episode 7,   Mar 31, 2020, 02:38 PM

Part two of our exploration of Bowie's Diamond Dogs, precision-engineered for your entertainment and enjoyment.

"This is not the end. This is not the beginning of the end. But it is the end of the beginning." Winston Churchill could have been talking about this episode of Albumtoalbum, in which Stuart and I continue our deep dive into the world of Bowie's* Diamond Dogs and conclude the first part of our chipper chat session. In this handy, pocket-sized episode, we marvel at Sweet Thing/Candidate and Rebel Rebel, via Bowie's eyepatch, John Lennon, Alvin Stardust and a choice of Germanic influence - 1920s Berlin Cabaret or pounding krautrock? 

*Have you noticed how, in 1974, it was just "Bowie"?
