Tosh and Kimley discuss “David Bowie’s Diamond Dogs” by Glenn
Hendler from the 33 1/3 series. “Diamond Dogs” is frequently
considered one of Bowie’s best albums by critics and fans alike.
It’s an album that was stitched together from the detritus of a
failed “1984” project and his reading of William Burroughs’ “Wild
Boys” which impelled Bowie to use the cut-up technique in his lyric
writing. Bowie’s cryptic lyrics are ripe for the kind of OCD
examination that the 33 1/3 series allows. And given our current
virus-laden era of social distancing and big brother-like policies
emanating from the powers that be worldwide, this feels like an
album for our time.
