Station to Station is special on its own, but the Special Edition makes it worth buying for the live album.

Besides an encyclopedia mugshot of David Bowie a list of notable albums is inscribed. The eternal titles tagged to seminal albums; Ziggy Stardust, Let's Dance, Low, Hunky Dory... Station To Station, Bowie's tenth studio long player isn't ever likely to be added to such a perennial collection, as the "Thin White Duke" sounds bizarrely befuddled on the comprehensively theatrical eponymous opener, melding together idiosyncratic yelps with Suffragette City honky tonk, squealing train tracks, and Hard Rock Café guitars in a muted, almost mundane reentry into chameleonic Bowie transformation. Yet even on the original analogue [...]

"Hunky Dory" is the fourth album from Bowie, but the first that was released under RCA records which he stuck with for over a decade. Bowie arrived at the cover shoot for the album with photographs of Marlene Dietrich who was a perfect metaphor for the music the album presented. It was a perfect representation of the album's blend of gay cap, flashy rock guitar and saloon-piano balladry. Contrastingly he tributed Bob Dylan and Andy Warhol. On "Life on Mars?" he sings to all the weirdos like himself. It became a sort of revolution because an entire army of kids [...]

I think we as people sometimes like to attach grandiose reasons to justify our love of a musician or band, when instead, our love is often kindled by smaller, more private and inscrutable moments of reverie. They're little moments of falling in love with the way a singer phrase a certain line, or a great guitar, piano or sax solo, or the way the horns swell in a very specific point in a song, and because they are so private, so unique to each individual, the importance of such moments to a music listener are unfortunately unheralded.
