Plastic soul never sounded so good. David Bowie's Young Americans is the 1975 album where the glam rocker reinvented himself in Philadelphia, here on CD in its remastered form.
Fresh off the Diamond Dogs tour, Bowie headed to the city's legendary Sigma Sound studios and immersed himself in American soul and funk. He brought in a crack band including guitarist Carlos Alomar and a then-unknown Luther Vandross on backing vocals. The result baffled some of his glam fans and won over a whole new audience, giving him his first real breakthrough in the United States.
The title track Young Americans is a breathless, saxophone-soaked rush of words, hope and cynicism tangled together. Fame, co-written with John Lennon and Alomar, struts on one of the most famous funk guitar riffs of the decade, and it still sounds irresistible. Win is slow and silky, while Fascination slinks along with a groove that shows just how deeply he had absorbed the music he loved.
Bowie's version of the Beatles' Across the Universe, with Lennon himself joining in, adds a fascinating wrinkle. Young Americans remains one of his boldest shape-shifts, the moment the chameleon proved he could inhabit any style and make it his own.
