Recently I bought the book "Low" by Hugo Wilcken, published in the famous 33 1/2-series (which has promised us a book on Tin Drum years ago). While reading the background of the first of David Bowie's Berlin album, I listened to the CD, especially the original instrumental side 2. Maybe this has been discussed before, but while hearing Art Decade (especially the metronome-like drum-machine) I had to think of Despair, while the closing Subterraneans (including Bowie's melancholic saxophone-playing) brought The Tenant in mind.
When Quiet Life was released the influence of expecially Roxy Music was discussed, but what influence had the music of Bowie on Japan?
