David Bowie's first single
from the soon-to-be-released
album, "Let's Dance," is a mid-
tempo song that effectively
mixes sounds from the 50s with
those of the 80s.
Co-produced by Nile Rodgers
of Chic, the single "Let's
ets mixed review
Dance," keeps a steady bass line
beat sparsely punctuated with
keyboard and guitar.
Bowie's vocals are compara
ble to his recent albums —
slightly strained, heavily
anguished. With the additon of
congas, saxophone and a Beach
Boys vocal opening, the song
becomes a possible dance hit.
The album version is twice as
long as the single with added
sax and guitar solos and more
than enough room for re
mixing. The single doesn't have
the radio appeal of Soft Cell's
"Tainted Love," but will certain
ly apeal to Bowie fans and rock
club audiences alike.
On the flip side is a speeded-
up version of "Putting out Fire"
from the movie, Cat People. The
soundtrack was chiefly a mood
piece heavily infused with
synthesizer (it was co-written
wih Giorgio Moroder), but this
is straight-forward rock cut with
a great guitar hook.
