Kebroxu - that's a good idea...

"Bowie songs that anybody hardly ever mentions"

Mine's "Soul Love" - it just got me the first time I ever Heard the Ziggy LP...
and stayed with me ever since...

Just a gentle corny love song that's arranged to perfection.
Over the years I've accepted that for many, it's the song they wish was dropped from the LP...???

It's maybe not my favourite Ziggy song either..
but it's often the one I first think of when it's time to put Ziggy in the CD player again...

As for "To be played at maximum volume"... I was so lucky..

My Dad had saved up his factory wage slave paypackets to buy a hazardously loud Hi Fi stereo
which he used to compete with his workmates next door and up & down the road.

My first experience of Ziggy was with those huge Goodmans speaker cabs
that pushed air across the room so hard you could feel the bass impact your chest...!!!!! 😎

Terrific saturday afternoons with that stereo when I was only 14...
