Album Notes & Community Reviews
Following his pivotal role as the primary architect of David Bowie's Spiders from Mars sound, the virtuosic guitarist launched his solo career with this highly theatrical debut. The album perfectly balances his blistering hard rock guitar heroics with lush, campy orchestrations and brilliant pop-rock covers.
