Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine Rebound's David Bowie is essentially a straight-up reissue of the endlessly reissued David Bowie (Love You Till Tuesday) album. There are no bonus tracks, since Mercury had just issued the extensive 27-track The Deram Anthology in 1997, which contained all of Bowie's recordings for the label. This is just the album itself, containing such cult classics as "Uncle Arthur," "Rubber Band," "Sell Me a Coat," "Love You Till Tuesday," "Come and Buy My Toys," "Join the Gang" and "Please Mr. Gravedigger." Curious fans looking for a taste of these Anthony Newley-esque music hall shenanigans may be tempted by the budget price on this disc, but any fan truly interested in this material should spring for the full Deram Anthology, since it not only contains his best song of this era ("London Boys"), it also contains the notorious "Laughing Gnome," plus such unsung vaudevillian novelties as "The Gospel According to Tony Day" and an early take of "Space Oddity." If you're gonna dip your toe in water this cold, you'd be better off diving headfirst into the deep end.
