SPACE ODDITY - This 1969 release features David Bowie's first hit single, "Space Oddity," and sets the tone for the spacey ZIGGY STARDUST to come. But other than the title track, SPACE ODDITY isn't a glam-rock album. For that phase, one must move ahead to 1970's THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD. These folk-based tracks largely present Bowie as a surrealist singer-songwriter. The uncharacteristically bitter and sarcastic "Letter to Hermione" is the most impassioned track here, presenting, as it does, the angry side of this master of cool. While still earlier recordings are noted for their Anthony affectations, SPACE ODDITY is where the Bowie myth begins to take shape.

Bowie's previous album "David Bowie" (1967) was his last folk music album. Bowie's next album "The Man Who Sold The World" (1971) was his first glam rock album. Right in between the two was "Space Oddity" (1969). Bowie managed to get the best of both worlds into this 10-song masterpiece. "Space Oddity," the title track, was his first commercial success (much due to the fact that it tied into the moon landing), and a nice yarn at that. Not one of his greatest, but it paved the way for songs like "Changes." "Unwashed And Somewhat Slightly Dazed" is just about as close to glam as he gets on this one, with about 3 minutes of guitar solo at the end. "(Don't Sit Down)" is the little insert which, like "Her Majesty" from The Beatles' "Abbey Road," seems almost as an afterthought. However, unlike "Her Majesty," this is quite good for all its 40 seconds. It's main flaw is that it could ONLY exist at 40 seconds. Any more, and it wouldn't be as nice. "Letter To Hermione" is his bitter plea to his recently departed (left, not dead) girlfriend Hermione Farthingale. Not much of a song, but the end ("He treats you well"/"He brings you out in style"..."And when you kiss it's something new"/"But did you ever call my name just by mistake?") is good enough to make just about any girl come back (don't you think she wishes she did, now?). "Cygnet Committee" is the grand gem of this album. 9 and a half minutes long, and great for every second of it. It weaves a talk good enough for a novel and the end brings to mind every great plea of human history, from Patrick Henry to Martin Luther King, Jr. "Janine" is a nice little steel guitar rockabilly number, which would probably go over with the Garth Brooks crowd even today. As a footnote, it's also one of those multi-decade numbers...as song from the '60s, with a sound like the '70s, in a film about the '80s, made in the '90s ("Whatever" (1998). "An Occasional Dream" is another about the failed dreams about his relationship with Hermione...much better then "Letter To Hermione." It's one that takes a while before you like it, though. "Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud" sounds like something from a Disney movie in more ways then one. But, the thing that strikes you most about it is the grand sound, which sounds like a national philharmonic orchestra. The song is great too, another nice bit about freedom. "God Knows I'm Good" is to his folk music days what "Unwashed And Somewhat Slightly Dazed" was to his glam rock days. Sounds so folky, it sounds like a leftover from the '60s. But, if you listen to the plot, it really does typify what folk music was all about...plot...social commentary. A nice simple story good enough for a short story. The title does a nice little twist at the end, good stuff. "Memory Of A Free Festival" is one of his earliest hippie songs, which were later perfected on "Hunky Dory" (1971). With an end refrain borrowed from "Hey Jude" and "Give Peace A Chance," this is the perfect song to end this album, sticking in your mind and making you want to listen to the album all over again. And, believe me, if you're a real Bowie fan, you'll want to.
