The Man Who Sold the World

by

David Bowie

To me, this is when Bowie really started hitting his stride, where you get assurance that he's going to a force to reckon with. Opting for more of a traditional rock direction with some baroque and glam elements, songs like "The Width of a Circle", "Black Country Rock" and obviously "The Man Who Sold the World" showcase his songwriting and composing ability. Obviously this was a wonderful tee-up toward the next stretch of records...
