Description

Station To Station is David Bowie's landmark tenth studio album, released in 1976 and marking the transition between his American soul period and the experimental "Berlin Trilogy" that would follow. Recorded in Los Angeles, it introduced Bowie's enigmatic Thin White Duke persona and blended funk, soul, art rock and proto-electronic influences into one of the most acclaimed albums of his career.

The album features the epic title track Station To Station, alongside classics including Golden Years, TVC 15, Stay, Word On A Wing and Wild Is The Wind. Frequently cited as one of Bowie's finest recordings, it remains an essential album in the history of rock music.
