The Singles 1969 to 1993 -- Featuring His Greatest Hits
A more exhaustive selection than the one-discChangesbowie,The Singlesalso falls much harder on the idiosyncratic side--a perfect place for a Bowie retrospective. For every "Fame," there's a "Sorrow"; for every "Let's Dance," a "Beauty and the Beast." This record also does the right thing by focusing on every facet of Bowie's '70s output and breezing quickly past the ever-blander post-"Modern Love" era. Even if you're a Bowie fan who leans toward having everything, this is about as everything as a compilation of A-sides can be.--Rickey Wright
