Talk:Stage (David Bowie album)

Questionable statement

As Bowie rarely tampered with the arrangements - in contrast to his method on David Live - Stage added little to what was available on the original albums.

I'm not sure if the guy who wrote it actually listened to the album or just copied text from albumreviews who clearly havent listened to the record. All the Ziggy songs performed during the tour were reworked. "Ziggy Stardust" is the most obvious example of this. Five Years, Soul love and Star were segued and all the heavy distortion Ronson like guitar bits aren't present in these renditions. Even the newer work from Low and Heroes were reworked with "What in the world" (much more a reggea song in this form) and "Breaking Glass" (at least double the length of album version with musical middle section) being the most obvious ones.

It's true the arrangements are close to the originals, but the instrumentation is often very very different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.79.39.113 (talk) 15:11, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
