Advantages: Truly inspirational, awe inspiring production of music
Disadvantages: none

...As a long standing Bowie fan, i recently purchased this album to replace the origianl that somehow went astray - its bizarre how you mange to loose so many CD's - or is it just me?!?!

At the end of the day, this album is a must own for any fan of reggae, old or new. The lyrics are thoughtful throughout, from the opening track "Dragonfly", where nature asks Ziggy the question "what type of creature is man?" and why is he doing what he's doing, to the extremely...
