A very interesting look at the early years of the character we know as Bowie. It's a strange juxtaposition of 60's pop that oozes innocence while at the same time emanating a very adult and sometimes racy innuendo. "Love You 'Til Tuesday" is downright delightfully cheeky. "Let Me Sleep Beside You" is way beyond it's time in terms of raw desire, but you might have to look closely to see that. The miming in "Mask" is downright ballet, demonstrating his inherent animal grace. "Mask" also gives us a very early insight from Bowie into the nature of stardom and the potential destruction residing there, made real by one's own foibles. The unexpected version of "Space Oddity" is certainly like no other you might have heard or seen. Overall, this is a must for Bowie fans who simply must know more.
