Editorial Reviews

DAVID BOWIE ‘LOVING THE ALIEN (1983 – 1988)’ contains a brand new production of the 1987 album ‘NEVER LET ME DOWN’ by Bowie producer / engineer Mario McNulty with new instrumentation by Bowie collaborators Reeves Gabrels (guitar), David Torn (guitar), Sterling Campbell (drums), Tim Lefebvre (bass) as well as string quartet with arrangements by Nico Muhly and a guest cameo by Laurie Anderson on ‘Shining Star (Makin’ My Love)’. The eleven CD box is named after the opening track from the ‘Tonight’ album and includes newly remastered versions of David’s most commercially successful period ‘LET’S DANCE’, ‘TONIGHT’, ‘NEVER LET ME DOWN (ORIGINAL and 2018 VERSIONS)’, the live album ‘GLASS SPIDER (Live Montreal ’87)’, the previously unreleased ‘SERIOUS MOONLIGHT’ live album, a collection of original remixes entitled ‘DANCE’ and the non-album / alternate version / b-sides and soundtrack music compilation RE:CALL 4.

Amazing!
Amazing. Bowie at his commercial peak and possibly the era that most of us will remember him the most for, although commercial peak does not equate to his best work as I find it to be all amazing. The only negative is the lack of an AutoRip, which seems to be typical these days as the AutoRip’s don’t appear as prevalent with newer material that they once did.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good box set
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2020
Good price to start with- and the live albums sound great, with a great book.
The only negative would be the new mix of DLMD 2018 sounds a bit jagged. The songs with the new arrangements and more power are great and an improvement on the 1980s release but I think they went heavy handed with the mid frequencies. so its not clean sounding. The re masters of the other albums are fantastic with have a bit more oomph. All in all at the this price is a must have for bowie fans. Cant wait for the next one.

Esse box , além de muito bonito, engloba toda a dicografia oficial de Bowie nos anos 80 mais os extras de dois ao vivo e uma versão especial do "Never Let me Down" com arranjos mais "enxutos".
