Station to Station - Live; 2017 Remaster

This is the title track to David Bowie's 10th studio album. It is notable as the vehicle for Bowie's last great "character," The Thin White Duke, a well-dressed, cocaine-addled tortured soul with an interest in the occult. "Station to Station" in the only Bowie song that names the character ("The return of the Thin White Duke") - he would abandon the persona after the album.

During the sessions for Station To Station, Bowie was heavily dependent on drugs, especially cocaine, and recalls almost nothing of the production. He once joked, "I know it was recorded in LA because I read it was."

The only memory Bowie has of making the album is of ordering lead guitarist Earl Slick to play and repeat a Chuck Berry riff over the opening bars of this track. "I have only flashes of making it," a saner Bowie said much later. "I have serious problems about that year or two. I can't remember how I felt; I have no emotional geography."
