Description
1993 brought the long-awaited return of David Bowie, solo artist, with Black Tie White Noise. With Nile Rodgers again producing, the album provided sonic updates to several previous Bowie eras: with the opening instrumental “”The Wedding”” (inspired by Bowie”s 1992 marriage to Iman Abdulmajid) offering a dance-and-house-inspired tone recalling Low”s brighter moments; the single “”Jump They Say”” harking back to funkier times, and a cover of Cream”s “”I Feel Free”” marking a long-awaited reunion with Ziggy-era partner Mick Ronson (sadly, Ronson passed away soon after). Reaching No. 1 in the UK album charts, Black Tie White Noise reassured fans that Bowie”s creative curiosity was insatiable as ever.
