The Platinum Collection brings together David Bowie's hits from 1969 into the mid-eighties on CD, a guided tour through the shape-shifting years that made him a legend.

It begins with the lonely astronaut of Space Oddity, then moves through the glam theatrics of the Ziggy era, the plastic soul of the mid-seventies, the Berlin experiments and the sleek pop of the early eighties. Few artists changed costume so often and so convincingly, and hearing the transformations back to back is a thrill.

Life On Mars? remains one of the most dramatic ballads in rock, all swooping strings and surreal imagery, while Heroes turns a story of lovers by the Berlin Wall into a soaring, defiant anthem.

The later stretch is no less essential. Let's Dance shows how deftly he bent funk and Nile Rodgers' polish to his own ends, and there is room for his celebrated duet with Queen, film themes and a handful of deeper cuts that fans will be delighted to find alongside the big singles.

As a single collection, it covers more ground than most artists manage in an entire lifetime, and it makes a strong case that no one in rock reinvented themselves with more style, wit or nerve.
