EDITORS’ NOTES
Bowie took on a lot of creative personas throughout his career, but this compilation focuses on the creative songwriting and imaginative production that supported them all. Chronologically arranged from 1969's futuristic psych-folk breakthrough "Space Oddity" to 1997's Brian Eno and Trent Reznor collaboration "I'm Afraid of Americans," Best of Bowie charts the man's unending artistic evolution. The soulful intensity of "Young Americans," the creepy atmosphere of "Ashes to Ashes," and the pure-pop delight of "Modern Love" sound even better in their rare single mixes.

About David Bowie
Everyone has a David Bowie that they fell in love with first—the otherworldly outsider Ziggy Stardust, the electronic adventurer, the wild-eyed glam pioneer, the enigmatic storyteller. But it was Bowie's ability to reinvent himself so vividly that captivated us again and again. Driven by boundless imagination, David Bowie was a multifaceted music icon, a social provocateur, a force in fashion, and a gifted actor whose unique personas and perspectives traveled with him through the decades. From the moment his homesick astronaut captured the spotlight in the late ‘60s to his exploratory, jazz-influenced Blackstar almost 50 years later, he excelled and innovated with turns in pop, glam, punk, soul, hard rock, and electronic music. And even though Bowie released vital albums throughout his life—and will forever embody the most artful edge of rock ’n’ roll—he was more than just the music he made. Bowie's fearlessness inspired us to celebrate the complexity and beauty of being completely ourselves.
